This is one sweet looking ride if I may say so, and your grandma nailed it, the black inserts look much better, the wheels and calipers show enough red already.
Great job on the front splitter and the LED side markers as well, adds to the menacing factor that black Camaros exhibit so well.
Not sure why you switched to a 5W-40 Motul oil, I'm sure it's fine, just being curious... hm? |
Thank you sir! Yeah Grandma knows best lol. As far as the Motul I suppose its kind of a long story but on previous cars I was using Rotella t-6. Eventually, I think with all the shortages it became impossible for me to get it, and this Motul was getting great reviews. for my application at the time. I had a little left over in the basement and I know amazon can get it to me the next day so when I saw that it was Dexos 2 and seems to meet all the other specifications, I thought why not. Mobil 1 has seemed to step their game back up, for a while they were on my bad list, but I will probably go with the 0w-40 in the winter or something. From my research Castrol, Motul, Valvoline and Mobil are the only ones that make compliant stuff for us? Some people use Amsoil too? Anyway I was having a tough time finding anything locally that was not 5w-30 dexos so I think Motul is a good choice?
Oh my blackstone analysis kit just showed up the other day, so next oil change I will send it out.
