Engine oil consumption
Hello all,
I'm not trying to step on anyone's toes with this thread but it's something I'd like to know. I'm a new owner as of early July with a Roush sbf crate #427R-795 with 2700 miles. After the initial 500 mile oil change( it used no oil), it has used about 2 1/2 quarts of Castrol GTX 10w-30. I have not abused it nor have I babied it. Only a few times in 2200 miles have I revved it to 4k driving on freeways and a few mountain roads. Maybe that is babing, no? What does your engine use be it a Roush, Craft, etc? Big or small block it doesn't matter. Am I expecting too much with no oil usage? Thanks, Cliff
