I met a boat mechanic yesterday that switched to synth in the 80s. He was racing dune buggies with aircooled VW engines and his always ran at 270. His friend talked him into switching to Amsoil synth and his temp dropped to 160 and never went higher again. He runs it on all of his boats and most of his clients. He is known as the Hino guru and travels servicing Bayliners.
