I run Castrol 20w-50 in mine in the summer time, Rotella 15-40 in the winter. If the bearing has an AN6 line going to it, there's the possibility of replacing it with an AN4 hose instead. That appears to be plenty of oil, and may raise the pressure in the rest of the system. It probably wouldn't hurt to talk it over with the "5th-bearing" maker, but I believe some folks are doing that.
