As far as i know the Penrite designation 20w/60 officially doesn't exist- I would think they should really call it 20w/50.
They say it replaces their original SAE 30 oil - not sure of the additive package but I think they are suggesting it performs like an SAE 20 when cold and an SAE 60 when hot.

Hi Tony, this is the stuff: https://www.penriteoil.com.au/applicatio...benefits#/
I suspect all those specs mean a lot more to you than to me!
I didn't realise Penrite are an Aussie company.

Simon, a very old and well thought of Oil company since the late John Dymond took over the company in 1979- and a great supporter on the Melbourne Austin 7 Club as a major sponsor of Historic Winton.
The company is still owned and operated by the Dymond family in Melbourne.
Our Spares stock (and I always use) Shelsley Light.
Good choice, cheers, Tony.
