That's what my local shop uses.

we should form the DUMB club.....
that is the oil I ended up using, it is the 2nd time I used Pennzoil in the SS.
could you enlighten us about it having a better addtive package than Mobil 1?
Always ready to receive new info on products.....thanks.......Tom

When I was on the LS1 web site a while back, one of the guys over there was pretty much the oil guru. He did tons of testing and overall recomended the Pennsoil. I was using Royal Purple at the time and his research convinced me to switch. I now use it in all of my vehicles. I personally haven't noticed any difference between Mobil 1, Royal Purple, Amsoil or Pennsoil. Since the Pennsoil is cheaper and easier to find and seems to perform just as well, then I will stick with it.
