That’s what I used when changed about 5K miles ago. Struggled with the decision, thought about going with Redline. After reading posts about additives or not (much debate, can’t remember all the details now), found it to be more complicated question than one would think.

Anyway, working great so far. Did figure 8’s as part of process.

Here’s a thread that helped me pull the trigger...

(see post #26)

Hope this helps.
