Hey all,
I've been browsing these forums a fair bit, but have just recently registered.
Im in Australia and have a 2007 HSV (Holden) GTS with a 6.0 litre LS2, which is the same as the motor in the Corvette in the states.
The motor has 44,000kms at the moment, and i'll be doing my first oil change next week.
I've been using elf in my previous vehicle, and it was recommended to me by a few tuners, so i'll be sticking with it in my LS2.
Over the weekend i purchased some Elf excellium fully synthetic 5w-40, but i was tossing up between that and the 10w-50.
What do you all recommend would be the better one to go with? I personally feel more comfortable with the thinner 5w for startup, but if its too thing obviously i'll be taking it back for the 10w50.
Thanks in advance
