    What Oil Viscosity for Southern California Car?

    My wife’s brothers made all kinds of money reworking old wells out in west Texas. Oil companies figured out what they and some other small guys were doing and went in and bought up all the old rights so that was the end of that. Her brother said it was really good while it lasted.

    Third block is a Dart SHP 351 block. It’s for another project I’m ever so slowly accumulating parts. Have a TFS R upper and lower for it as well. Will most likely get a set of TFS 205 11R’s when the time comes.

    Cobra Brake Conversion - Spare Wheel/Tire Search

    So all in I am at $165 per spare. Bought new Continental 155/70R17’s. Could have gone with 145’s but they were a longer lead time and cost more. Fit is good enough to get the car where it would need to go to either put it on a trailer or limp it home if close enough. I will say the 155 fits...

    Owners manual 40+ years old and lubrication technology has advanced in 40+ years by quite a bit. I don't think it it is over thinking rather more like understanding what is available today that is better than the offerings 40+ years ago.
