Well as long as iron stays in normal range I will hope for the best. I also have magnetic drain plugs. I get very little deposits on these now. I used to get large amounts with previous motor. So I use the plugs and Blackstone to give myself some piece of mind.
Thanks for your input

Relax.
The dry sump system in a C6 Z06 holds a lot of oil, and 1.5 minutes on...
Okay, here is my Blackstone from a couple of days ago. I am relieved to see my iron levels lower. I am doing 2-3 AutoX per month now so am using more oil. Used 1/8 of a quart on last one. And lets not forget my high Lead levels which are now lower than universal averages. So happy I am running...
