What is the opinion of the Borg here?

I agree with and use the 30 wt. ND method, especially for a MC engine. I used it w my 911SC motor back in the day and got fantastic results re-ringing Alusil jugs, something that certain members here said could not be done successfully.
There is more to it than just using the ND oil, I use this guy's method and then change out the oil after ~100 miles or so to whatever you are supposed to use in the engine:
