Car use to be a street car ran m1 5/30 and GC 0w30. Car is now full time drag car with a LT1 Stock. How often should i be changeing the oil?Any tips on the grade i should be running or just keep what i have been putting in there? .Also so getting ready to put a new rear end in with a spool what would be the best rear gear oil for the drags ?
 
Seems you are on track but I wouldn't use a syn oil I would use a HDEO oil as it will protect better with the higher additive package and cost less . The rear end I do not know what would be best for your purpose.
 
Run a top quality(like Pennzoil)10w-30 oil and a good name brand 80w-90 in the rear unless it calls for something heavier. Don't forget the additive if you have a limited-slip. If the engine is truly stock and is not dumping loads of fuel down past the rings and into the oil then you should be able to run the oil for a pretty decent amount of time.
