magnatec? on an alloy block which isn't magnetic?? lol (i think the crank is but thats about it)

I use Castrol Edge Sport (i think thats what its called these days).

Good oil, close to FEO standards but synthetic.

Lol, GTX Magnatec is not Magnetic. So doesn't matter your engine is alloy or not.

TheGoodDeal is right. Magnatec is not magnetic. It just has an affinity to stick to metallic surfaces, so it will work with a full alloy engine.

I like Castrol Edge 5w-30. And tomorrow is the last day of offer $30 for 5L at supercheap.
