Most people seem to use 10w 60, I use Millers, as do a lot of other people on here, there's a few threads about it previously. I use silkolene in my difs (not that grade obviously)

I was chatting to a Miller's rep @ the autosport show about that, he claimed i'd gain 30bhp on my engine using the Nanodrive stuff, funnily, i didn't quite believe it?

I always use Silkolene/Titan race now.

Has anyone tried the castrol edge 10w-60?

I have it in my engine at the moment, and it seems to hold up nicely in the heat we are having here, no noises from the followers even after coming out of the track with 37 C ambient temp
