Yeah, but the Wal-Mart synthetic comes directly from the vehicles in the service bay. Probably still warm. LOL! I'm still a fan of Mobil 1.
On a side note; did you ship the intake tubing yet? Do you know how much?

Re: synthetic or conventional oil which do you use?
I used regular Valvoline dinosaur oil in my Spec. At almost 40k on my motor, the head looked brand new. My opinion is if you are on time with your oil changes dinosaur oil is just fine.

Re: synthetic or conventional oil which do you use?
Up to the 40k mile mark I used a mix of
*conventional*
pennzoil 5w-30
Supertech 5w-30
At the switch over from Conventional to synthetic I used Castrol 5w-30 Synthetic blend.
Since 40k I've been using
Supertech 5w-30 *synthetic*
On every oil change since the changeover I've noticed increased oil consumption. (up to a half a quarter low.) I'm switching back to conventional oil to see what happens.

Re: synthetic or conventional oil which do you use?
whatever is on sale at the time... I feel the same way if im doing it every 3k and my motor is not high mileage, so why bother with synthetic... On another note walmarts synthetic is exactly the same as whichever brandname made it (im not sure which company makes it, though) They just sticker it different at the end with walmarts brand. They do this because a. they are still getting to sell it to walmart and b. if they dont walmart wont stock there brandname either which will hurt the oil company alot more than it will ever hurt walmart... The same way with their grocerys.
