I'm hoping you don't have to come back Knocking in more ways than one.  Z

Well Z I have been beating on the SHO pretty dam hard (FUN) and it now has 36973 miles on the OD and I haven't heard any noise yet. The car is still under warranty and if the engine hatches I will let everyone know and you can count on that.

Well, my request for the update was out of curiousity, to see how well the conventional product is holding up.  Considering most people will run either full synthetic or synblend, your data is definitely an "outlier".  I really would have liked UOA to go with, just to have an objective quantification of the state of the engine, but of course, that is purely at your discretion :)  I certainly wish for and hope for the best for your SHO!

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Thanks SHO but everything is just fine.

I do love me some gentle sarcasm and soft nudges along this journey of life.

I guess synthetic oils are in fact overrated and completely unnecessary after all ...it's a shame people are over paying and drinking the kool aid

I like Kool aid...
If you watch for sales/rebates, you can pick up synthetic for the same as conventional oil.
