I look at it this way.

Top fuel cars running over .0035” clearance and making close to 10,000 Hp run a straight 50 weight oil and that’s mainly due to oil dilution from passing 6 gallons of fuel through the motor in less then 4 seconds!

If a guy is sleeping better by running a 20w50 oil and loading the oil pump drive gear and cam gear more heavily then that’s your choice.

I will not even go into how oil temperature goes up in relation to oil pressure.
