No,

40 hot @ 1800 /2000 rpm with 5w30 m1 is the best I got..

J Porter, Did you install the 296HV pump as you planned back in 2010? If so, what were the results? Did I read correctly, the 5W30 oil produced better oil pressure than 15w40? If so was it better both hot and cold?

  Do you have access to BP fuels? Some stations have Silver 91 E-0 priced the same as their 93 E-10. There is a local Marathon with 90 alky free for $6 a gallon but I go down the road to BP for $5-ish. They also have a 100 E-0 but that stuff is $10 a pop.

  passive listening likely misses a lot of useful data for any system probelms (vs bus/communication problems), which are more common. and you would need to poll most everything, because you have no idea what/where the problem happens, and data from just prior to the event is likely more important than what's happening after the event. It would likely be more useful/successful, to be set to look at a specific subsystem, so after some random problem happens, then you attach this device, set to watch/log for that specific problem the next time it happens.
