    Its not the thickness that counts its the flow of oil....the more oil you can get to those parts the better....oil tends to get thicker when its cold meaning that the oil flow will be restricted untill your engine meets its prime operation temps....don't listen to the old folks about running...

    Question about mirror finish (head) & I'm lookin for a reputable machine shop in WA
