.boB -> RE: Synthetic oil (4/29/2008 3:41:15 PM)

I put RP in this time, but only because I had 4 qts of it lying around, and no use for it.
IMO, RP is about the best oil you can get. It's a true PAO synthetic, well engineered, decent price, and easy to come by. BUT, I think it's much more than any street car needs. At $6.50 - $7.00 a qt, not a sensible choice.
For a street car, I'd recommend a good priced Group IV "synthetic oil", like Quaker State, Valvoline, or Penzoil. They provide all the protection your street car needs, and a reasonable price.
Unless you can get Mobile 1 at a good price, I would not recommend it. It's also a group IV just like the others; but a lot more expensive. It's a good oil, just not a good value.
At my next oil change, I'll switch to one of the others.
