40:1 plain Polaris blue, non-synthetic. They have an engine dyno, but unless things have changed, it's normally only for R&D work. Never hurts to ask though.

Modquad, Why Blue? I've always thought synthetic=better. ( I guess I've also been a mobil 1 fan for a long time too)

I also ran the Klotz Super Techniplate,but i was noticing that it was separating from the fuel.I have a clear race jug and i could see the Klotz on the bottom every time.I now run the polaris gold synthetic mixed at 32:1.

The blue was recommended to me by the local Polaris techs. They have the least amount of troubles with it. They sell it in bulk...you just bring in your jug and they refill it. I do use Mobil 1 10W30 in the counter balancer though. The blue has worked great, I pull the jug off each winter just to check things over, and it's always good. I just freshened the stock 99 bottom end, and after all this time running upwards of 13-15:1 compression ratios, and running some high rpm's, everything still looked great. Just preventative maint.
