Default ITs alive!

Thats right Black Rain is runnign again ahvent taken it out for a ride yet since ive yet to pay the tag fee or get the plates on it but, I did go to napa and get a filter and oil. Took a long time because i had them check all over for high mileage oila nd they didnt have any in stock that wasnt synthetic. So I ended up with "Premium Napa 5w-30" its in a blue bottle. Anyone use it before? Opinions? No where else in town sold oil besides cheap store brand like Dollar General or Alco brand so I went with the Napa stuff. Its already in so may as well run it and then get some high mileage next time i cahnge it. and the filter was a pain to get off! lol but anyway next on the list is the supercharger oil once i remeber to pick up a set of alan wrenches. Got a few pics will have them up tomorrow man I missed that car. I looked it over n noticed a few chips and a light scuff that id missed before will hopefully get them repair sometime this year.

NAPA oil is a good choice. IIRC it is manufactured by Ashland Oil (Valvoline).
