yea just one guys opinion. ill keep my facts: switched to full synthetic in my 1995 truck at 188K miles 2 years ago - not a drop more is being burned (maybe have to add 1/2 qt in 3K miles), no external leaks, lifter noise goes away faster due to it staying thinner at colder temps. at 196K now and nothings changed.

model A engien has 10W40 in it castrol gtx conventional. why? mostly cuz i was breaking it in but any oil nowadays is better than what they had even 50 years ago.
