havoline 5w 30 with a wix filter.

At bobistheguy.com havoline is considered the better dino oils.

Some people prefer synthetic oil and such but I like to have new oil in my car every 4-5,000 miles vs every 10-15k. (just my opnion)

I won't choose on the poll yet, I just put in Castrol Syntec Blend 5w30 and K&N Performance Gold oil filter.. I considered going full synthetic, but it's almost winter, and I won't be driving it much til spring..

I use Mobil1 and Purolator Pure One filters, now that I can get my hands on 'em. I bought 3, so there's two on my shelf now.

Mobil 1 synthetic blend with a Fram filter... I usually change my oil before 3,000 miles so I don't buy any kind of fancy filter. I might actually start buying Napa oil too. There was an article in Hot Rod that listed all the additives that need to be in oils and Mobil 1 doesn't have a lot of them

Oh man, I made this poll to see if anyone else uses Valvoline, so I don't feel as alone as I think I am. Maybe I should go delete the other choices.

PS Jon, smart move on the Purolater.
