I'm running Dewco lube. If I didn't know better I would think it was 10 W 30. Super light weight

Check the Red Line stuff; likely thinner, likely slipperier, likely never get dark colored after many runs.

Next year a few of the OE's will introduce oil that has 0W/-7 viscosity. Also 0W/-5. That's some thin oil! All about fuel mileage with the OE's. That's a negative viscosity number I am trying to show.
