I'm running redline 5w-30. You're right on the viscosity. It's thicker at lower temps. Maybe not as much with a 0 weight, but still thicker than when it's warm. Oil pressure will be a lot higher, but flow will be lower.

180 degrees is when I feel comfortable romping on it. That's out of habit and OCD. If Phunk feels comfortable getting on it at 140-160, then its ok.
