KMart's KMX 20W/50.
It gives me the same oil pressure hot or cold as Castrol Edge 25W/50 does, and it's about 1/2 the price.

Made by Shell, I think.

GR runs it in all his dyno engines, even Ford BDA- and his road minis too.

It was on sale this week, so is even cheaper than usual. Must get to KMart today, I ned some. :wink:
