Re: low oil light
It is true a good synthetic like Mobil 1, German Syntec, Redline, etc can go 7500ish miles and still give good wear analysis results. However, I still wouldn't go nearly this far on an old school hot rod. Opening the secondaries on these makes these run a little richer than alot of EFI cars and getting a little gas and contaminants into the oil from this still warrants the 3k or less change interval IMO. My friend's 79Z28 with a fresh warmed over 355 is proof of this. He uses Mobil 1 0W40 with K@N filters and after about 2k miles, the oil is pretty dirty. He also gets on it almost on a regular basis.

I also use a fram oil filter with the rubber grip thing so I can get it off with my hands most of the time.
