Went to AutoZone today and picked up two of the Castrol Syntec 10W40 specials (5 qts plus K&N Gold filter for $27.99).

Needed 9 qts or so for the Box, plus my car has the LN billet adapter, so I was able to pick up two of the recommended K&N HP-1007 filters with the special (normally $13.99 ea) basically for free!

Funny part was, I attended a PCA Chicago tech clinic yesterday where Charles Navarro (LN Engineering) was one of the guest speakers; drove the Box since it was 70+ degrees, and he discussed motor oil advantages/disadvantages.

Here's what my LN magnetic drain plug looked like...kind of a "metallic paste" on the end of the magnet...around 2k miles on this fill.

Good timing all around and now my Box is ready for hibernation.
