Default Engine oil

Question.

Car is a 98 LS1, 333,000KM always has run dino oil, burns none and runs great!

I wanna know what type of oil do you guys suggest? I run AC delco filter from GM. I do 1000KM a week commuting (all highway) so don't want something crazy $$$$

Looking at castrol, Mobil 1000 or pennzoil, but curious what you all have to say.

Thanks :-)

My buddy works for a chemical company that makes additives for motor oil, gasoline, diesel, etc. He tells me that the test motors that they run conventional Pennzoil 10W30 in are always in the best condition when they tear them down.
