Which oil
 
Hey guys, just wondering if anyone here knows what brand/weight oil All Star Garage use when they do an oil change or fill a new engine (just had a 207 put in and running it in)
If i can i want to keep it the same, if not ill go down and get some mobil 1 to do a quick oil change and keep using it from now on.

cheers

Just give them the oil u want to use but pretty sure they use motul

For run in it should be on a [B]mineral oil[/B] (non-synthetic) for the first 5000km.

Run 5w30 mobil 1 only after the first 5000km or you'll have blow by issues.

Could you recommend a good mineral oil rossco, what brand/ weight will you be going for in your build?

cheers for the quick replys

I actually asked Sean that very question just before they shut up shop for the Christmas break and he told me that unless they are asked/told otherwise they use Mobil 1 Fully Synthetic 5w50.
That is of course, for a motor already run in.

You would want to change your oil to a better one after the run in period.

It's a little more expensive than what others use but I use MOTUL 300V Chrono, SUBARU MOTORSPORT use it and rebrand it as their own so it must be good. :D

MOTUL 300V Chrono will make me go broke! and they only come in 4 litres, they sure know how to make money :)

couple of mates use it and say its excellent

They actually come in 2 & 4lt bottles. :D

Oil price and how much your willing to pay comes down to how much you really care about your car.

Price is no issue :) sounds like good stuff
Will google where to find some, cheers guys!
