Luv your dog. I know you lost one and so did I 2 years ago. She was my friend for 14 years. I still have moments where I think she should be in a certain spot. I guess for you, it will be good to get out and make that first pass this year.
I recently changed to a 15/40 diesel oil on a warmed up 521. I was having oil starvation issues with my front sump Lincoln MkV application. Pulled the engine and changed to a baffled pan (6 qt) and dual stage M48 B pump. My .010 under crank and rod bearings were scored to a degree, but not enough In my opinion to change out since it was actually impossible to find replacements. Put it back together, and back in the car. My oil pressure after the change is 75 cold, and 30 psi hot idle with 5/30. And no starvation under WOT. Changed the 5/30 out the other day and went with 15/40, and have seen better numbers by 5 psi. Prolly not ideal, but good enough psi for a street sleeper?
