Run your oil resevoir down as low as you feel comfortable, then add that Quick Silver.

I did this years ago when I switched from using regular Pennzoil to 100% Pennzoil Syn, did't hurt a thing!

Ran the tank down to about a 1/4 and poured a gallon of Pennzoil Syn on top, that was in 2003.

Will using a brand other than the manufacturer's suggested oil potentially void your warranty? In other words; if they find you're using a different brand oil and there is an engine failure will the manufacturer use this as reason to not warranty the engine?

I have run my Pennzoil in my 250 HPDI since I bought it 2 years ago with no problems.

They can not dictate what oil to run only what certified specifications (tcw3) it has to meet

Cabela's sells their own brand of oil that I put in my 2005 Yamaha. It is a couple of bucks cheaper.
