As some of you may know....I was the winner of the Fabo commercial contest. In which I won a free case of Royal Purple engine oil.
I have a 1967 318LA (full description in my restoration thread...link located in my signature below). Mild build,mild cam,.030 over poly pistons,headers,eddy intake and carb....mostly basic stuff.
I will be using regular engine oil for the first 1,000 miles or so to run through the semi fresh engine.
My question is this.......I have heard that you cant switch to synthetic oils after using regular oil....and I also heard you cant switch to regular oil after using synthetic oils......is htere any truth to this?
I have always been under the impression that the two oils dont blend and actually stand on top of one another like water and oil mixed together and will cause engine wear.
I wanted to ask you guys and find out for sure.....sorry if its a dumb question but I just want to make sure on these things is all.
Also what viscosity of oil is recommended for my set up in the Royal Purple engine oil?
and do I have to use a specific oil filter? or will my trusty brand of mopar oil filter work fine?
Thanks in advance for the help everyone!
