Default well according to your post you must buy all your oil from the dealership............

since the dealership is the only one to supply this rare type of oil, oh since you sound like an engineer yourself, what railroad do you work for?

Must be good stuff. Ferrari Enzo requires 10W-60, 12 quarts @ $60 ea., or no warranty on $200K motor

If you don't see 0W-40 written there, you are only deceiving yourself.
