Vr1 50 good? Just wondering what you guys thought of this oil? I just picked up some and going to swap on my next oil change. I usually use valvoline platinum or castrol whichever it is. I know it's hot more additives in it. So let me know how y'all liked it. Or not.

Chaos07, we are not to familiar with the VR1 oils but you may be able to find some useful information here
I run VR1 20-50 in my '94 Z28 398 LT4. Helps with the notoriously low (compared to LSx) oil pressure that LTx motors have.
No complaints. Seems to do the job fine. Running a thicker oil like this might cost me a couple HP, but I like seeing the higher pressure on the gauge.
