Everythings cool, I hope.

So guys since I put the cam in -EV27 I have more engine noise, I thought I had read once that Amsoil synthetic would quiet things down any help?
The Amsoil has a better lubricating quality than petroleum oil, if that does not work to your satisfaction you might want to try a straight 50w. I ran 50w to 60win both my Shovel and Pan although I never did in my Evo as the Evo is a completly differant motor. Before you go to a straight 50w check out the pros and cons. It just might work??

Cow killer and 89fxrs, you guys are killing me. Your both right and your both knowledgeable with Evo's and that's what I want help with. I thank you for your replies and I thank you both for being here to share your information.
I'm sure when I have another question I'll be able to count on you guys to give me the answer I'm looking for and I'll look for the Amsoil Syn 20-50w this weekend.
Enjoy the weekend and the ride.
