This is what I meant when I said the right oil. I think it's about $70 / litre.
This oil I bought, Ben, was specified by a) the Holden dealer, b) the lookup computer at Autobarn, c) my Pace manual, and d) my trusty mechanic (although he still doesn't believe I'm going to finish building a car!). Got four sources telling me the same answer - now that NEVER happens. Suss or what!

The additive choice was less scientific, I confess. Only one I found that I recognised (and respected) the brand name of!

Btw, all those oil recommendation sources also recommended that I should put additive in as it's an LSD.
