i thought you should know that synthetic oil is still crude(dino) oil, its just refined further and has alot of additives put back in, that process is where they consider it getting synthesized. also, not using synthetic oil on break in is a myth, it will work/protect just as well if not better in that situation as well.

i know you guys were probably joking and already know that just thought a few people might not know and will read your posts and get the wrong ideas.

Many engine builders and experts see this debate on both sides. And I am not going to argue and make this thread about that issue. However, since I am not building the engine and buying it pre-built, I have no idea what the tolerances of each part of the engine will be. So I will run dino oil for the first 1000 miles for proper break in and then run synthetic after that. Just personal preference.
