It is weight dependant, of course, but check out 0w40 or 5w40. If you think that it won't break down before 7500 miles at 220 degrees farenheit, then you should quietly excuse yourself from this thread.

I have looked at the chart, and the viscosity at 220 degrees is well within operating range. The lower viscosity does not cause breakdown in within itself.
