Was using nothing but RP. Then one day i didn't have enough so i swapped to Mobil 1. Went to the dragstrip that day and pulled the left front tire off the ground HeHe. So now im sticking with the Mobil 1

was using M1 oil + filter for a couple years and never had any problems except for some ticking and valvetrain noise. Switched to RP and within a day or two most of the valvetrain noise was pretty much snuffed out.

im so confused on what oil is what

EDIT: also, back from the dead thread bump

Mobil One is all I use. I have been using it for more than 15yrs. Everything I own has Mobil One in it. I like to say if GM cars come with from the factory, than it is good enough for me.

yea thats what i thought, then i saw 5qts of RP and an RP filter for $49.95 at pep boys lol. Well worth it IMO since it ended up costing me about the same when it was all said and done
