I recently dried out my block I currently run a 50 weight oil. Will that be ok I'm guessing I'm going to get more heat. Thanks

How many gallons does your pan hold? That's more important than the weight.

5 gallons

Not sure what class you're running but, more oil = bigger heat sink.

We have a pan that can hold 10 but run about 8 or so.

Also check your oil's viscosity index on it's TD sheet. The higher that number the better the oil viscosity stays consistent through all temperatures.

An oil with a lower viscosity index will tend to thin out more as the temp rises compared to an oil with a higher visc index #.

A good number is 140+

Adam,

Is Shaeffer's 50w good for the application 6 gallon dry block SuperFarm?

We recently switched to Shaeffer's 50w seems like good oil.
