Well see if you can find out more surely which you should be using.
Ohlins No10 is 22.0cSt apparently.

Viscosity unless you go mental and put 20w in will just change the adjusters range with these differences but should be about rideable.

Any chance I could have an inspect of this kit

It is possible that top adjuster adjusts compression.
