What did you do to your TRX today?

Started my interior lighting project yesterday

The Oracle 6 head fiber optic kit. Got it from @NickKNSF. LOTS of patience required for installation.

Oil change again. 0w40 and Purolator Boss out, sample sent to TestOil. Red Line HP 5w40 Euro and Fram Ultra went in. Hoping the higher HTHS vis will cut the iron a bit more vs the 0w40 samples. Still fine tuning the program and testing will tell the real story next time. But so far so good.

Also installed the Valvomax drain on the pan. Forgot to order one for the oil cooler so that’ll be one for next time.

Nice day out, thought I'd make a hit. Just your typical everyday Whipple on 91, cannot wait to get the E85 and smaller pulley, hopefully next month!

I'm curious what that oil sample looks like, I'm also running the 0w40 Redline.
Yeah, I’ll make a thread with all my findings and samples once I actually come to some kind of conclusion. I’ve found these engines definitely put a lot more iron and copper into the oil than what I’d be comfortable with on an LT or LS, for example. Closer to an old SBC. So have to re-learn, adjust and set reasonable expectations.

The RL 0w40 has given me the best results so far and I wouldn’t hesitate to use it again. Just testing a theory that the 5w40 may be able to cut bore wear and reduce iron in the sample a bit more.

How many of these kits do you have installed and how are you hiding the hardware?
 
Today I purchased a Rambar to install on my ghost '23...if it ever gets here I'll have some fun with that.
I also recently purchased the retrax and tail lights for this non existent '23 that will hopefully show up this week.

1 kit, 4 of 6 heads installed so far. I used this video as reference. I used a fuse tap on F54b for ignition power. The main unit is on the driver side right next to the accelerator pedal.

Cool, Thanks I'll reference that.

Do they have a dimmable function? I assume they will work with the Oracle interior replacement bulb package?
