I have tested both oils in several motors over the years. In a Lyc or Cont you need an ashless dispersent oil because of the elevated temps. An aircooled engine has CHT's of 400 f and the oil needs to be able to not coke over. My liquid cooled plane loves the Amzoil 20-50 racing stuff. The problem is full sythentic oil will not carry away the lead found in 100LL and it leaves the innards a little dirty instead of keeping the lead in suspension. Petroleum oil works ok but oil temps consistantly run 15 degrees hotter. YMMV

I'd love to see some success with automotive oil as well. However, I heard
many years ago that auto oil had a tendency to not flow properly through the
ports in an aviation engine (smaller holes). Anyone have any support for
that or is it just an old wives tale? It would be curious if the newer
technologies on oil, especially synthetic, would change the answer as well.
As you said, I won't be trying it myself for sure.
