  7. Sorry I couldn't make it folks, too busy with the family to get away. Enjoy the good weather and everyone be safe!!!
  8. Still very early in the planning stages of a Nitrous setup and have a feeling that I will probably go down the direct-port path but looking at the intake manifold not sure if the PCV "box" molded into the passenger side rear of the manifold as well as the other "box" on the driver-side front are going to cause any problems. I looked around under the fuel rails and there doesn't seem to be much room under there but I'm not Nitrous Dave to be able to eyeball it myself and say "yeah, this is where I would drill all the holes". I believe the Dodge Ram guys have a similar "active manifold" but haven't found any pictures of a direct port on them to see if it is actually the same manifold with those molded boxes on there.
  9. I will begin my lobbying efforts, I know an all-dayer will not be possible so it is either first thing in the morning or later after 5pm. Either way I would like to get another half dozen runs in this year. Congratulations Knowman, best feeling in the world is bringing home a newborn!!! And I don't mean a new car....
  10. Now that the 2012s have the magnetic ride control, is there any issue with lowering them?
  11. And to think, all I asked was 0w40 or 5w40. While it adds probably no value whatsoever to the conversation, the 13 year old 3.2L 98 Dodge Intrepid I just traded in on the 392 had 172k miles on it. I changed the oil abut every 12,500 miles on average with the absolute cheapest 10w30 dino oil I could find. I beat the living piss out of that car every time I drove it for the most part and it still only burned about 1/4 to 1/2 quart of oil between changes and was getting almost 30mpg still when I finally traded it in. Makes me wonder why I worry so much about the 392....
  12. I by no means am going to do every 3000 miles. When I was changing at 5000 in my Camaro the Oil Life Indicator was still at like 53% or so. I just did my first change this morning at 700 miles and will probably do the next at 6000 miles and have the oil analysis done. I am not crazy obsessive about this but my intention is to keep this car a VERY long time so I will probably err on the side of changing the oil more frequently than trying to stretch it. Based on the Camaro, going 7,500-10,000 miles should be no problem especially since I don't beat the living piss out of the car on a daily basis. Anyone know if the oil life monitor in our cars actually measure properties in the engine/oil over time to determine when it lights up for an oil change or is it just programmed to ding every 6000 miles after it is reset. The wife's Town & Country minivan just dings after 6000 miles, I don't think it is any more intelligent than that. The Camaro indicator was nice as it gave a digital readout of how much oil life was estimated to be left and when you got down to 10-15% it was recommended to change it.
  13. Picked up some Castrol Edge with SPT 5w40 Full Synthetic from Advanced Auto Parts last night. Why? It was on sale. Not going to obsess over this and will probably just go for what is on sale at the time and stock up on it knowing the oil change interval is much more important than obsessing over 0w, 5w, or 10w. I used to change the oil every 5000 miles in my LS3 Camaro so I will probably do the same in the 392.
  14. Sam, ironically these were the answers I was expecting. Thanks for not letting me down guys. I woulda thought the forum was going soft if I didn't catch some "that's a stupid question" comments.
  15. The 2012 User Guide says 5w-40, the 2012 Owner's Manual says 0w-40. Supposedly Chrysler dropped/switched their oil contract so they use Penzoil now from the factory and Penzoil doesn't have an 0w-40 and only has the 5w-40 which is why the User Guide says 5w but the owner's manual was never updated and still says 0w. My guess is it doesn't make a shit bit of difference but wanted to bounce it off you folks.
