Amsoil a substitute for the Delvac 50?
Just wondering if this is a direct substitute for the Delvac 50/Indmar 50 V drive fluid? The Delvac 50 and Indmar 50 are hard to get here but I can get the amsoil easily.

Found delvac sae 50 at summit racing for $43/gal and Amazon for $55/gal.
Certainly cheaper than amsoil.

For our Vdrive Indmar sent me Mobile SHC 630 as a replacement oil to use since the Indmar oil was backordered.

RUGER761,
Did you notice any difference in running Mobile SHC 630 in your Makai?
Thanks,

I went down a rabbit hole, and I no longer believe Delvac 50 is their preferred fluid. The Malibu thread linked below started it, but I also noticed a part number change in the manual around ~2018, which aligns with the info in the thread. Also, the Bakes Marine product description for the fluid listed in the manual notes a replacement for Delvac 50.
The cost differential is close enough that I'll likely use the Indmar product, but I would guess it's a rebrand of the 630...
