You can find out more than you probably want to know about lubrication by browsing around bobistheoilguy forums.

Exactly, it is not "studies" it is fellow enthusiasts sending out used oil samaples to have the wear metal content analysed and then sharing that info on boards like the bobistheoilguy forum. Everyone wants dyno or track data for engine parts well this is the measuable info on how an oil works.

German Castrol 0w-30 Synthetic year round here Do a search on it, very low wear numbers in a LT1 with it and it is supposed to be closer to a 40 weight.

Not sure if your talking to me but I got the exhaust from www.gmmginc.net . I got it for a GP price something like $600 or $650 can't remember.
