I was under the impression that CP purchased their Group II oil from Korea. Not sure about their Group III. Is that from Korea also? Of course I'm assuming Kendall's "synthetic" is Group III.
The UOA's of CP's Motorcraft and their other synthetic blend oils have consistantly produced really good results, especially for the cost of the oil. If they are producing the base stock of Group III for CP that will hopefully provide the same good UOA's as their blends. It's not just the base oil stock but also the blending of the oil additives that make a great oil.
