Actually, I did pay for it. It's on my receipt when I paid in advance. Checking with them now as to why they didn't provide that....
 
Unusual to see Mo, B, and Mg in a NAPA/Valvoline product. What oils were used the last couple of OCIs before this one?

I'm pretty sure Pennzoil Platinum was used during some previous changes before switching to the Napa Syn. Hard to remember exactly.
 
On those extended OCI's you never know with out getting the TBN. That's what I was hope to see on this test because there are so many people on here that Poo Poo the NAPA full Synthetic trying to suggest its a 7500 mile oil or less.

I contacted Blackstone and they sent me the TBN results for my sample. They really are a nice group of people to deal with.

Here is the amended report. The TBN came in at 3.6.

 
From the much lower Calcium and sodium levels I'm taking this to be new Dexos 1 Gen2 Napa/Valvoline oils. How long did it take you to accumulate the 10,000+ miles? Looks good!

Well said Johnny Johnson. This does look quite good. Viscosity held up just fine for that mileage.
