I tend to go to great lengths to stay out of oil threads, as they usually lead to lead to arguments rather than resolution.

At the moment, I am not at my shop, so I do not have access to our data files; and as we live in a litigious society, and I happen to do business in a litigious state, I cannot publish any UOA's without the owner's written permission as they own the results, not my shop.

That said, Jake answered many specific questions about various UOA results on DT40 in a very long post over on Rennlist late last year that covered not only test results, but variations in testing labs data qualtiy, and even the impact of "cross pollination (not doing a flush before using DT40) Makes interesting reading: UOA with DT40 and a question or two. - Rennlist Discussion Forums

And, as I am sure you will note in reading his posts, nothing much got resolved there either.

I think you misunderstand my question. I'm only asking to see YOUR recent UOA. Not some random customer of your shop.

And as I noted above, I am not currently at my shop, and will not be for the next several days, so I cannot access that information. But to keep the dialog moving, I did provide a link to similar information.
