Arrow 180,000+ Mile Engine Internals (Pictures)
180,000+ miles. Using Rotella 15w-40 and Castrol 10w-40 mix. Changed at around 3,000 miles intervals.

Dang - this should be an oil sticky.... what kind of change interval, and how long have you owned it (since new?)?

Sorry, forgot to mention the change interval, every 3,000-ish miles. (Added it to original post up top).

I've owned it since around 100,000 miles but from what I'm told it got much the same treatment with Castrol up to that point.

Nope, no noise in the slightest. Don't have myself a oil PSI gauge hooked up yet. Still trying to work on a way to mount one where it looks at least somewhat factory.

Nice... odds on when I get around to pulling the covers off mine it's not going to look anything like that.
