Cleaning up my DVs--What to lube with?
I just pulled my DVs off to clean them up. They're Forge 007 models. The were VERY dirty and was one of those things that we didn't do when installing the turbos. Curious if a regular motor oil or synthetic grease should be used.

Right - Mobil 1 Synthetic Grease
Also happens to be what Forge recommends for servicing their valves in their <a href="http://www.forgemotorsport.com/valve_service.pdf" target="_blank">instructions</a>.
And it's such a pretty color!

That's the one. I prefer to think of it as cranberry, raspberry, or watermelon...
Reminds me of the strawberry chapstick I used to eat as a kid.
That big mark is from my tongue. Man this stuff tastes GREAT!
