Oxford, thanks for posting the full report. That does look good, as I compare to my old UOA's.

One thing you can see, is how the Mobil 0W40 shears down, both by the SUS Visc. and the cSt Visc. Both are on the low end. That's one of the rubs with Mobil from people like Jake and Charles. At least your Zinc and Phos are at decent levels. I think you'd see better results in your UOA with Mobil 5W50. or Joe Gibbs DT40 5W40.
