Arrow Rotella 15w40 UOA

Motor oil: Rotella 15w40
Milies/date : 1500 mi/ 2 and half month
Temp outside during the day : avg 110F
Temp outside during the night/morning: avg 90F
Daily or track: Daily. (a lot stop and go)
Modifi motor: Cams, ported mani, intake, stock 9, dump and bolts on.
Fuel: gasoline
Why only 1500 milies?: when i did research there was no rotella 15w40 UOA, so i wasn't sure how many milie i can run with this oil. That is one reason why i did only 1500.

Under 1000 milies, i did a lot pulls during the day and night. After 1k milies, i went pretty easy on because my tranny issue. I also had 600 milies road trip with total 3 stops for gas. Plus i used turbo timer, avg 30 sec ~ 1 min.

UOA:


I think the oil did pretty good and result is good just like i thought...Great oil IMO.
I'm going to use this oil for summer and rotella T6 5w40 for colder days.
