grade eight?

[peter at thescirocco.com (Peter)]

I checked with Gary Peloquin on this...
 
"Peter,

10.9 = grade 8

grade 5 is much less then 8.8"

 

Thanks...

8.8 is roughly the equivalent of a Grade 5 in SAE.
10.9 is roughly the equivalent of an SAE Grade 8.
 
While the 8.8 would probably be more than adequate, if I had a choice I'd
pick the 10.9.
I don't mind overkill as long as the only downside is a few pennies.  :)
