I don't consider Amsoil or Redline to be name brand oil perse because there more of a botique oil. But anything at Walmart but Supertech or Accel.

Also, this is not my list. It's a list made a long time ago.
Proline isn't made by warren, it's made by Conoco Philips.
This is evidenced by the MSDS.

It reads responsible party: Conoco Philips

The list is 3 years old.
Please feel free to correct it.

I am taking all changes into account.

Keep in mind also, that Motiva is the largest supplier in the world for group II/II+ and Group III base oils. Partially owned by Shell and Texaco. Just about everyone uses their base oils. Add pack is another story.
