I see Porsche classic oil for 3.0-up is 10W60, also seeing 10W60 as a recommended fill from others.
I'll be using a dino break in and dino oil for the first few changes on my new engine, just wondering what others think of this weight.

Are the new synthetic better at transferring heat now and do they still have leak/weep issues?

Honest not looking for a fight.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hide.gif)
