Hey dude, two problems with your approach:

1.) you're the one who said Amsoil was better...so if you want to pull yourself out of the BS bin it will be your task to do all the analysis to support your (insupported) claim.

2.) nobody here made any claims about tow rig applications...this is ls1tech.com not towrig.com so we're talking about oil performance in LS1 powertrains.

Send in for your oil analysis every three thousand miles and let me know whay you find with your german oil. Keep in mind the oil was NEVER changed for 78,000 miles. That was with a VERY dirty deisel engine. Every report came back. (keep in service). You guys type before you find out your facts. You can read for hours about oils. I'm done with this. Like I said before it makes no difference to me what anyone runs. I would be willing to bet money on the tow rig trick. Try that one!
Well now, there's an enlightened approach.
