What oil are you going to run in your new snow pony?
I have ran Amsoil in my last 2 axys, exhaust valves get somewhat dirty but nothing horrible. Blew my 2016 up around 2300 miles, rod bearing on the crank must have wore out, as the washer next to it came apart and took out mag side (about 300 miles on new top end). 2018 still going strong at almost 1k miles. I am religious about warming the motor up before taking off and I think that is why the stock and replacement pistons looked really good.
I need to order amsoil before the snow gets here anyways, but looking to see if anyone can convince me to run the VES extreme over amsoil in the patriot boost. Lots of turbo guys last decade running amsoil with good results. I have seen most the videos about cold pour and I know what the manual says, but am still not sold on spending almost double on a gallon of oil $35 vs $60.
