I use Walmart Synthetic 0W 20 and the car runs like a champ.
It takes me to Florida and back every 6 months from Canada.
Change it regularly...

The difference comes from the fuel.
Less than 91 Octane and she's not happy.

That's true, M1 is a bit loud, RP is quiet at first but got
louder, PP is quiet, total is quiet, the current Castrol seems nice and has less startup noise vs M1....

I don't care much though, it's just an LS engine at the end of the day and replacements are so cheap and plentiful I'm not concerned in the least if it somehow doesn't like a 5k change lol!

You know fair point! I always forget it's not a $2300 for a 45k mile engine type thing for most people......sorry my bad!

If mine died I would use it as an excuse to build it with a supercharger as well, there are some insane twin turbo builds with the 5.7 version out there. Always tempting to trade mine for a 2015 AWD so I can build an LSF
