Re: oil
Poke, this is my opinion and it's worth what it costs. About 2 years ago I changed over to Mobile 1 20\50 for year round use. Truck had about 400,000 miles on it then. I put a 5qt pan on it and use the 2 qt filters so an oil change is 7 qts now. I run about 10,000 miles between changes and it uses 2 qts between changes. I work my truck. I pull a 7000# trailer all over and use it like a skidder pulling firewood. It doesn't work as hard as before restoration, but it works. I've never had any mechanical issues with this oil. I guess thats why Farrarie won't guarantee thier engines unless you use Mobile 1. If it's good enough for thier engines in $250,000 cars, it's good enough for my truck. jim

Little stuff left to do is mount winch, wet sand & buff out and build belly pan\running boards. Body work takes lots and LOTS of beer!!!! God, Guts and Guns made America and God, Guts and Guns will preserve it! The worst thing you could do is get into my sights, but that don't matter, you'll never know it, cause you'll never hear the shot  Jim or Paladin whichever you choose.
