I hope you have a standard volume pump on the engine, no need for the HV version on any engine. That AMSOIL will void your registration to any rock climbing event. unless you custom make a pan for your application, picking one of the many examples for SBC is tough, I like the diamond stripper...

Quote: If Amsoil was so terrific, why aren't major manufacturers using it as factory fill? Mobil 1 is becoming factory fill on quite a number of vehicles. Ford strongly recommends the MC syn blend for their cars (except for certain high-performance models that get M1). thanks for posting that...

Quote: Regarding cost, I can buy MCSB for $12.50/jug ($2.50/qt.), while M1 is $24.99/jug ($4.99/qt.) last I checked. Assuming 175K miles in 5 years, that's 35 oil changes at 7 quarts per change, or 245 quarts of oil. That adds up to about $612 over the life of the vehicle - or one payment...

for what it is worth I have Royal Purple literature that claims their engine oils are good for 12,000 miles, that should offset the cost at $9 a quart. Back in the day I started with Royal Purple and I saw a immediate difference in my 428 Cobra jet engine. I had to lower the engine Idle 300 rpm...

over 100 oil changes why change anything? OCD

I can buy a shirt that says "MADE IN THE USA" real cheap! it's made in CHINA!

I would like to see a VOA of any API rated SA/SB oils, If this is already posted please point me in the right direction I want a good laugh.
