    What weight oil?

    I have almost always run synthetic 10w30 just wondering if there are better options?

    Also does anyone know where to find Kenne Bell supercharger oil in Canada

    10W30 is fine or even a 10W40. Dont have to use synthetic, regular is fine. IM sure you change the oil often enough anyway.

    As for the KB, you can use Redline 50WT oil.

    The good doctor recommend it, so that's what I've been using in my 5.0 too.

    I bought a big pail of this diesel oil 2 years ago from CT it usually comes on sale every 3-4 weeks. Good enough for 4-5 oil changes with a shelf life of 5 years.
