Which is the preferred choice for a first 30 minute start on a completely new rebuilt engine with a Raby cam and lifters? Penn or Gibbs break in oil. Mineral oil or synthetic?
Bradd Penn, SAE 30W Grade1 Pen-7120 . Joe Gibbs, 5-30 BR30. or BR10-40. http://penngrade1.com/Products/High-Perfor...eak-In-Oil.aspx http://www.drivenracingoil.com/dro/br30-br...-oil-15781html/ |

If Joe Gibb's Driven oil is now preferred, which oil is recommended for street use with a type 4 engine: DT40 5W-40, DT50 15W-50, or HR 10W-40, HR 15W-50? I assume 15W-50 for summer, but which type, DT or HR?

I assume 15W-50 for summer, but which type, DT or HR? http://lnengineering.com/products/lubrican...oducts.html?p=2 LS 30 for cold climate operation with temps less than 40F DT40 for mild cold, up to the low 70s DT50 for everything hotter than that. Internal clearances and oil pump selection do impact this. The HR oils are fine if you want a conventional. I use them after break in oils, before going synthetic. |
