Yep. Guilty. He's a good (ford-loving) friend of mine. but I don't know if he's neccessarily going to spend much time on here. Oh well, he has the option now. He wanted to show off pictures of his truck in the 87-96 forum... So check it out if you like.

Morning guys!

Looks like a busy day today. But, I get to feast at Famous Daves tonight. mmmmmmm.

Yea those are some pretty spendy injectors.

BTW, what weight of oil do most of you run in the winter? I was going to run a synthetic and a lighter weight but wanted to see what most of you guys do.

Hey Cory! Sounds like you are going to be eatin good tonight!! I have been running Schaefers 5w-40 full synthetic in mine for a couple years now and love it! Starts much easier in the winter! I know Tom, Jay and Mike are running it also. I can't remember at the moment what Dale runs in his.

Thanks Troy! I'm looking to change my oil before sub temps and going to try synthetic and wanted to switch to a lighter weight. I heard it is a lot easier to start with synthetic. So, why not.

Eat a trash can lid full for me Cory! It's been years since I've been there. That makes me want to thaw out the ribs I've been saving in my freezer!

When I first switched I changed it at 5000 miles. After that I have gone to about 7500 or what works out to once a year for the 15000 miles a year I put on.
