any sage advise for the 703 injector swap? Going to pull the fuel rail so I thought I'd raid the pick'n'pull for injectors before I do it. If you have to tear it apart, upgrade right?

All I need to hear. No Rotella here, so that's a moot point.

I still get almost 60 lb. pressure cold, and 20+ warm.

Maybe I'll do Synthetic with a can of STP for $hits and giggles.

I love Rotella and have used it for decades. It's STP I don't like.

Adding STP to Rotella T6 would be the equivalent to putting ketchup on a fine meal.

Agreed, skip the stp. Do your 4.0 a favor and read the write-up. Pick a good oil based on solid data. Crap oil is crap oil. Synthetic or conventional won't make a difference. Btw, there are really good options compared to Rotella. It's all in the write up.
