[QUOTE="UnleashedBeast, post: 14310545, member: 112023"] This is the latest version of recommendations for the 2013+ GT500. You will see that I have officially abandoned my previous recommendation of Amsoil AMO 10W-40, as the additive package in XLO is far superior in more ways than one. Factory engine fill is 8.5 quarts [B][URL=" http://www.amsoil.com/shop/by-product/motor-oil/gasoline/sae-10w-40-xl-extended-life-synthetic-motor-oil/?code=XLOQT-EA&zo=1859448"]Amsoil XLO 10W-40[/URL][/B] – Use this if you have the stock 192* thermostat, or you road race your car for extended sessions.
