Thanks dillon... what sort of outside temps do you run it in... I'll be in the desert alot this summer... in the 110s... and towing... guess I should have stated that in the post...
Not that high - it does get a little over 100 here sometimes 105 at the most. But - follow along with me here - I'm sure that a lot of people will disagree - but it's my thought process anyway.
Outside temps. In my mind it only matters really for start-up. Once the motor is up to operating temp - it's at the operating temp. Does not matter if it's 0 degrees or 100 - the internal temp of the motor is still the same. Sure the outside temp would determine how long or fast a motor cools down - but I can't see where it matters once the engine is running as long as your cooling system is working normal. In addition - syn oils don't boil/fry/bake etc soooo -
Anyway - that's my take on it.
