Synthetic (Redline) in the engine oil tank, Redline MTL in the tranny, and ATF in the primary (just started using that).

HD dino in the Twin Cam. 64k on the clock. Still runs like new, no smoking, and doesn't use oil between changes.

Pennzoil 20w-50 in the Sporty since it was new.

I use Amsoil and Redline Heavy in the tranny. Here is all you ever wanted to know about oil.

Just dont use cooking oil. It will cause bearing skate leading to flat spots on your bearings. If you need proof just check out the next portion of fries you buy.
