Default What does blending 5W-40 with 5W-30 do for you?

Seems blending, say, 0W-30 and 10W-30 would give an effect 5W-30 ... but what does blending 30 & 40 do?

he's probably doing it more for the additives, not the weights...

Default After reading up over there, it sounds like Delvac is the same as T&SUV or very similar.

Also sounds like a good oil. I'll probably give it a try with my next oil change and see how it pans out.
