Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog

Honestly it would be cool to pull it apart yourself, I'd even love to help, but IMHO an experienced engine builder would be who you want to do it. They might notice something some of us novices might not

I'll be at DB next friday too, maybe we wrangle danny and talk him into helping us take a peak.

Well I could probably take off of work a few hours early next friday, get there around 230 or 3 to take a look. My new motor should be progressing by then hopefully as well.

I'll toss Danny an email about it here later.

Ok, I'll be there around 2 with hughes for his tune. Anna will be along shortly with the pups to scoop me up and we're headed up north for the weekend, so who knows how long I'll stick around for.

FWIW I've run M1 10w30 in all of my DSMs and Evos, no issues yet. Of course, I've never made more than around 400whp, so I assume the 'big power' cars shane is talking about are 500+. I like this oil discussion, maybe we should start a thread about it
