Re: Oil Usage???

What have you been useing? I use Mobil 1 0w-40 fully synthetic and a K&N oil filter. I would use the German made Castrol because that is supposedly the best for LT1's, not sure about LS1's, but i cant find it locally.

Re: Oil Usage???

Is your LS1 burning or leaking any oil? If not, i dont see a reason to change oil now.
