Go read what they say on the LN engineering site..

My engine rebuilder said to use Castrol Syntec which I get cheaper than Mobil1 at several sources in Canada. I tend to listen to those that rebuild. Besides, the cost to rebuild or replace is rather high compared to the cost savings. PO had overfilled the crank with 4 extra litres. I got a deal including the cost of a rebuild ...

But, it's your car and your choice.
