Some takeaways, consistent with posts/recommendations I have made in the past:

1) 0w oils are the wave of the future
2) For older cars or cars never driven in really cold temps, 10w30 is a good bet
3) 0w40 is an oil worth considering for our Cobras if you drive very hard or in very hot climates - it is unclear what this would do to a warranty claim however.

These comments are in relation to Mobil 1.

I still believe Amsoil 0w30 Series 2000 or Red Line 5w or 10w30 are better, but only if you have the $'s and are willing to go past a 5k mileage interval.

davidmax had previously warned us that the Densos did not color well. He was correct. I am going with a diagnostic set of 12FM1s when I install a 3.10" next week. If they color up nice and tan, IT22s. If hot, IT20s.
