Default Looking to buy an MRC.. A question..

Does anyone know what the viscosity of the shock oil is? What shock oil do most people use? I am an Amsoil dealer, and looked at this:

for use in shocks... Don't know how well it would work, but a quart can be had at a reasonable price... and I could say I run Amsoil in my RC
Any opinions, good or bad, appreciated.

According to my owners manual the MRC comes with 100 weight shock oil stock. I am planning on running 45 weight, but I am a newbie so....

This stuff is 10wt... Not sure it'll work, but it was just something I was thinking about.

Look further in the manual it is actually 30wt memory serving. Just as a FYI seems like most run 40wt-45wt in the back and 30wt-35wt in the front.

How that will translate for you bro ??? not sure
