And half the cylinders are missing to boot! Looks like an entire cylinder bank just fell off the block. Boy howdy!

This is my toy I have a daily driver but I was going to take it out today, but its 40-45 degrees outside so before I turned it on I checked the oil. I has straight 40 since I don't like multi weight oils. I need to keep it around 20psi idle and I find that when I am pushing it most multiweight breakdown really fast on hot weather(all those additives to make it a multi weight). I am not paying 10 dollars a quart for oil good multiweight, Especially when a good synthetic race oil at straight 40 cost 4.50 a quart.

In cold weather have to switch to a multiweight but since the weather is colder, it takes a lot to get to 220 degress. That is the engine temperature that I see oil pressure dropping a lot on the many oils I have tried.

But anyway checked the oil and its way too thick, not going to drive it until i change it to a multi and prime the engine and turbo since it looks like we are going straight to winter this year.
