redline... I LOVE it... runs MUCH MUCH smoother than mobil 1..

A little history on mobil1...

It USED to be AWESOME... so good infact it needed to be re-designed... it was sooo good and longlasting that the additives would gum up the motor... They then re-formulated it so that the additives would breakdown at a more "acceptable" rate... this unfortunately lead to a MUCH crappier product... it decays MUCH MUCH faster. In fact it usually decays within if not under the recomended 3-5k mi. intervals...

I have had redline in both the tranny and engine for about 7k now and it still runs like it just had the oil changed (yes you can tell the difference)... I'm gunna swap the filter soon but probobly leave the oil in till 10k... I figure the only way I can afford redline is by using it to it's max so it is equal to the cost of changing mobil 1 twice.

I don't know anything about others but amzoil and redline are just about as good as they get... mobil1 is good and all but no where near as good as it was which is where it got it's reputation from... now it's like mother or mcguiares (waxes) it's great readily availble stuff but by NO MEANS the best.
