SignUp Now!What day? Sat or Sunday? Hopefully sat.
Killin' it Kev! Just a teaser of how this season will be!
do you have anyway to monitor oil temp?
Hopefully!! It's supposed to be hot as **** next weekend out there, and I never got my Oil cooler installed. So I'm gonna be taking a huge gamble. :thumbdown:
What weight oil are you running right now? If you don't have time to install the cooler, the there is the possibility of a little higher weight to handle the heat. Unless you are already there. Plus, I don't know how thick an oil the LS2 pump can handle. You'd know that better than I.
That other guy in the XR. Was he never on this forum?
you should be running 5w40 or 15w50 given how hard you drive the truck and the ambient temps you see
man I've run 15w50 here year round in some of my other vehicles never in the x but my 22re powered 4runner and my 3vze powered pickup so i really don't see you having any issues in socal
5w40 I'd run but couldn't find it. 15w50 seems a bit much....
Both of those engines have completely different tolerances. My buddy he'll run 20w50 in his runner but it burns oil like crazy. Hell , ive seen a 22r run with no oil pain and a hole in the block.
i fully understand that, but you have to remember the base weight of the oil is still on 15w but acts like a 50 weight when hot giving better protection when you need it.
I'm not going get into another oil weight argument. There are a dozen or so threads on this.
What's up buddy! Haha I've been reviving threads here and there shaking the old tree see who's still round. I'm finally gonna start going for full drift mod mode. After seeing your rollercoaster of a ride I figured I have to!1. I cant believe this is still here.
2. My truck has changed somewhat...
3. I would upload a picture but I cant for some reason.
