I live in south Florida where pretty much hot all year. I've ran 5w20 M1ep and now running MC 5w30. I feel like these weights are not good enough for me I sometimes push my car hard (got the boss manifold installed as of yesterday) should I go with something heavier or would I be hurting my motor?

The only way to be sure is do a UOA. I think 5W30 is plenty for hot weather driving unless you spending a day on the race track.

Switch to better oil but in the same weight of 5w30, pennzoil platinum or ultra platinum which is youtr cheapest option or use redline or amsoil which is your most expensive options. 5w30 is all youll need just use an oul that can take more abuse.

I would be curious on the results of that. I have been running RP also but a lot of RP haters. Curious if their beliefs are factual.

Its not horrible oil. Well certain weights arent that great, but for how much it is there are better options that are cheaper. As well as options that are similarly priced that are better. Its not hate. At least not from me. :thumbsup:
