No 20-50 (AFAIK), but there is 15w-50, which is what I use in the 'roc.  I
just
switched to it from dino 2 changes ago.  My motor has <allegedly> about 50k
on it right now.  I changed the first batch out at 3k, it was fairly clean
looking, somewhat to my surprise, especially right after switching (synth
has a higher detergent factor to it).  Now I'll prolly run it 5k between
changes, which is more than adequate for synth.
