What do you call hot rod spec? High power/high CR I assume?

Millers 20w50
check out the millers oil website for competition oils. That what the rally boys use in their XEs and some of them are running 260bhp.

if this person said that 10W60 is too thin and 20W50 is thicker then they dont really understand the numbers, 10W60 is thicker than 20W50
Id give guy a ring at opie oils and he will be glad to help, what he doesnt know about oils isnt worth knowing
