The prof on the Syntec Blend is on paper and it ain't pretty!
The last sample I sent into Blackstone labs using Castrol Syntec Blend said the following:
Oil sampled had 3,000 miles on it, Blackstone said the ware on that oil was typical for an oil with well over 7,500 miles on it.

The analysis came back like crap. There are a few guys on here that submitted analysis to Bill's spread sheet using the Syntec Blend, all of which look like crap. If I were you MaxSE99, I'd go back to the non synthetic Castrol 10W-30 or 5W-30.

Actually I switched to Amsoil Synthetics after I did an engine flush.
