Good oil for track use for a Diesel
#19
Settled on Gulf Comp 5w-40 in mine, and never had any issues.... Granted it never went on track, so never had the constant thrashing like that, however upon rebuild (if ever) its likely to spend most of its life on the dyno, which is hard on the motor, so time will tell.

I found the most critical thing to keeping good oil pressure is keeping the oil at a suitable / constant temp...Without an oil cooler this was impossible with mine, would get hot very quickly when pushing the engine hard....So find it surprising yours is happy without one...

And regarding Daves comment....<3
