First, a poll. This is for the F/2F folks specifically. Pick all that apply... oil weight AND Dino vs. Synthetic.

That’s me too.Great thread Shell Rotella 15W-40 diesel engine oil
I just grabbed a little bottle of the ZDDP off the shelf. Forget the brand name.Hey there Pighead, what amount of ZDDP are you using and what is that massive oil filter?
Awesome, that thing is huge! I've been using the Napa/Wix 1515/51515. I remember reading about Donaldson filters (along with Napa and Wix) as being some of the top quality aftermarket filters. I'll give that one a try! What size holesaw do I use to clearance the hood?I just grabbed a little bottle of the ZDDP off the shelf. Forget the brand name.

Great thread Shell Rotella 15W-40 diesel engine oil

Question @Honger - Why is 10w-30 not an option? I would think that would be pretty common but maybe not. Also, I'm somewhat surprised at all the 20w-50 votes, I would think that oil would be quite viscous for all but the warmest of regions.
Actually, the Donaldson looked identical to the Napa, like they were made in the same factory.Awesome, that thing is huge! I've been using the Napa/Wix 1515/51515.
