you’d rather worry about inadequate flow or rediculous pressures due to tighter clearances?

on second thought you prolly don’t have to worry because your car is a billion years old. All my old shit i run thick oil in too, but the new shit it’s really not required and will cause excess friction and loss of the all important HPs!
