You might as well try it and see if it's any quieter. It stands to reason that the quietist oil is the best oil right?

LoL, just kidding. I don't have a clue, but I have heard that motorcraft is good oil for the money....

I'd recommend checking out the VOA section for most of your questions about additive levels and whatnot.

Aside from all the numbers, MC really makes my car run better. OTOH, if Chevron is truely gonna work better, you would have to get a UOA. I would try MC and see if you can feel a difference since UOAs are not part of the equation here. You can't lose either way since Chevron has lots of moly but are MC's numbers head and shoulders above Chevron in terms of Flashpoint, moly, zinc etc? I'm using MC 5w-20.
 
I use Mobil 1 10W-30 in my 06 Titan and my wifes 04 Frontier. Both are super quiet and run well with this oil. Use Wix filters on both. Change the oil in the Titan at 8k,4k for the Frontier because of the 3 1/2 qt oil pan.

Well, there's no place here that lists the published spec's for every oil. Those you go to the refiner/blender website. Not all are easy to find.

Now you're looking (typically) for two different things. You (probably) will NOT find the content of the particular oil that you're looking at on the blender's web site. You'll ( typically) find the performance spec's that it meets. Now if you want content in stuff that measures in ppm ..the the VOA section is where you need to poke around
