I use Mobile 1 and AC Delco. Although my nephew said Mobile 1 is not the best synthetic something about ash content (not sure). I was thinking about Royal Purple but at $10.00 a quart I am not sure I can afford that. I wonder what is the best synthetic oil available. I guess thats something I can google and get some hard facts about oil.

Is it that bad? It's been a few years since I read it but it seems that Mobil 1 came out on top on all of the stuff that really matters.

well it seems that my pick of Mobile 1 and a Delco filter is best. I am hard on the car so I want to make sure its going to be good enough. I have a sport bike but I only run AMSOIL in it. I beat the eyes outta that thing and never had a bottom end failure or any type of oil leaks

pdesanctis · 08-24-2011, 01:15 PM

Keep it simple, use M1 5w30. If you want a more robust oil you can use M1 Extended Performance 5w30 (also Dexos approved). They sell 5qt jugs at Walmart cheap.

Pennzoil Ultra and Royal Purple 5w30 are also good choices.

I'll be using REDLINE OIL and a Purolator filter in mine. I've got my own reasons for not using Mobil 1 in this car.
