Just an FYI the first number followed buy the W is the base weight of the oil. The second number refers to the viscosity enhancers effect. Unfortunately each manufacturer has leeway on the temperatures the enhancers open up and the lubricity they can provide. To further complicate things, the additives each manufactures uses changes the behavior of the oils. Hence the described differences in performances.
