    Really? If you want simple information contact Penrite. If you post on a forum you get rambling discussions...

    But seriously, after your question went around the houses, SimmAus asked if anyone was using a 40 weight and the replies started. That happens.

    Where’s Tins when you need him?

    Makes life easy for them with a price match, not the same product, so if Supercheap puts it on sale, they don't need to match it.

    Mattress companies are the best at this game

    I was seeing a fairly consistent sump temp of ~121C pulling the van home from Albany yesterday. If that's sump temp, then the oil temp in the bearing is going to be "quite a bit warmer". I was doing some work with a guy a few years ago who put thermocouples under the main shells to measure the oil spilled directly from the bearings and he was clocking more than a 20C difference between the crank and sump temps.

    Wonder what the difference in KV and HTHS is at 150C?
