Mobil1 synthetic is the best oil ever made imho.
I didn't believe in it until my Mobil 1 fan boy friend had me tear down his "always ran M1" 120K motor to refresh it. He daily drives it as well a runs it at the drag strip 2x a month as well.
The cylinder cross hatch was not only visible but looked brand new/freshly honed. The bearings were hardly worn. I was shocked and converted myself to a M1 fan boy for gasoline engines at that moment.
Valvoline is my 2nd, but still high preference, choice for engine oil, and #1 for trans, gear, etc.
If you think Mobil 1 is good, then try Amsoil. Here is a good video series on Amsoil:

The new GF6 oils are pretty damn good, I know what kind of testing oil companies use, I know what the minimum standards are, and the new oils are heads and shoulders above what we had just 5 or 6 years ago.
Good to know. Thanks.
