Wow! This really could open this can of worms again! If you can't tell,
this subject has been beaten to death on this list but it seems that while
everyone groans about it, they always comment. Anyway, I use the big juggs
from Wally world. M1 15-50 Extended Performance is supposedly the one that
has the ratings for our cars. We also get down to the single digits and
less in the winter around here in Boone, NC but rarely get up to 90 in the
summer. This is all I run in my beasts and have not experienced any
problems.
HTH,
