Synthetic is supposed to be better for modded engines, ive never had a problem running the blue stuff, but my engine is stock. do you have the oil injection blocked off?, or is it still injected? because you cant run pre-mix if it is injected, but if you have the block off, than you are supposed to run 40-to-1 since its a liquid cooled 400. (someone please correct me if i am wrong)

I removed: front diff, drive shaft, the guts in the hub, starter, battery, bat. box, all wiring, generator coil, litnd flywheel, shift linkage, floor boards, fan, bumpers, all rear brake stuff, chain guard, air box, oil injection and tank. Plus I cut the plastic. All I did was split weigh the front and the back on a bathroom scale so I may be off. About 190 up front, 180 on back.
