Pep Boyz just stated carrying the GC.
They even had a sale on it already.
The Mobil 1 extended performance, or high mileage 5W-30 does not shear/fall out of grade as much nor as quickly as the regular old 5W-30 M1.
Their EP/Euro 5W-40 is good as well.
Another great, decently priced 'off the shelf' oil for LSxes is the Shell Rotella 5W-40.

I use Mobil 1 5w30 and don't have any issues... but I change my oil at 3-3.5k miles... I'd rather be safe I guess.
That and I don't drive to far so I'm usually two months before a change or so depending on if I decide to take a long relaxing cruise or something like that.

I just went from mobil 5w30 to valvoline high mileage synthetic blend. MUCH better pressure now.
EDIT: Forgot to mention it's 10w30 with a little bit of lucas oil stabilizer. Great pressure and is holding up well to the abuse it sees regularly.
