I've asked this question before and I wanted to go with an oil that was going to be able to withstand high temperature and stress. A few people pointed me towards this oil and I am quite happy with it.
It's cheap enough that I can change the oil quite regularly w/out breaking the bank. I only wish I could find PP or M-1 in a 5w-40. I just feel more comfortable with 40 instead of 20w, just seems to thin.
The HEB grocery store by my house has a whole shelf of Mobil 1 5W40. If you have an O`Reilly auto parts store where you live,they seem to have some unusual oils.......Mobil 1 0W20,0W40,5W40,RP SAE 50,and Valvoline VR1 SAE 60 (talk about a thick oil!!!!!!!!!).
