So every 7600 miles in reccomended oil you will spend $67.
And 7500 miles worth of cheap crap $87.50 changed every 3000 miles.
Plus you would be using a viscosity that was not designed for our engines, or have the additives that is needed for the aluminum engines with the alusil coated cylinders.
We are all about finding better or saving money but bad oil is not how to do it and will coat ALOT more in the long run.
First thing I did when I bought my ssb was change fluids in everything so I knew what was in it and when it was changed.
