So it’s been a while but all the heat exchanger parts are in. I’ve started installing the parts and wiring up gauges etc.
The stand-alone harness is nearly finished with wiring. The instructions what little came were wrong so it took extra time to sort it out. I think everything is nearly ready. I need to go over every connection just to double check everything but the engine should be ready to fire up soon.
I’m using Sae 30 to break it in. I’ll probably switch over to 10w-40 once I’ve started it and let it run for awhile. Probably 20-30mins on initial startup. Then change to conventional 10w-40 and after 25 hours probably switch to full synthetic (royal purple is a favorite of mine).
Volvo recommends 10w-40 in the dps based Ls systems
Crusader recommends 15w-40 in their 6.0 Ls system.
Any suggestions always appreciated
