Hpr 5 mate, if you put your vehicle’s details into the Penrite website they will recommend the hpr 5

Yes probably HPR5 for normal driving. If you are towing a caravan to Darwin maybe go the 10.

2007 ssv manual
Going up a grade in oil won’t stop your lifters from making noise on startup unfortunately I tried changing a few different types of oil in my old LS1 for that very reason and nothing really made a difference to it... as long as it’s only a couple of seconds on startup I wouldn’t worry about it, put some nulon lifter free in it does help

7 litres is not enough. The owners manual says 7.6 and that includes the filter
