Steve,
Like alot of other issues, there are varying opinions on the forum regarding oil, each from fairly knowlegable people. By "solid info" if you expected to get one universal recommendation for oil, you'll not find it.
That said, IMHO, 20w-50 might be a bit stiff for this time of year in your part of the country. 10w-30 would be a better choice.
