Chevron Supreme is on sale at Tractor Supply for $7.50 for a 5 quart jug. Great oil with a butt load of Moly. I cleaned 'em out.
2ndly...Amsoil is putting together group buy just for ls1.com.

You are a chevron man arent ya.... lol You probably know the last name Pratt

[Hi-Po]

Is that decent oil then? Ive been driving my girlfriends car (G6) ever since I hit two deer while we were driving and fucking. I wacked two deer while she was sitting on me, pretty funny really.

I need to change her oil, no pun intended. But I aint buying MY PP for the G6. Only my Grand Prix and TA get that, maybe some amsoil this round?


Should I put this in the girls G6?

[Zapper2003]

How's Valvoline conventional? and Bosch or STP filters?


And here might be a tricky one for ya. Harley Davidson brands their own oil, and nobody knows who actually makes it, so if you can, find out who their conventional 20w50 is made by and what would be a cheaper/better alternative, the shit is 6.50 a qt for non-synthetic!

Damn good oil for 5K OCI's. You porn stars....sheesh...

Valvoline is good oil.....I prefer the Chevron/Pennzoil conventional.....
Well Virgin Oil analysis reflect the Harley brand oil is Sunaco. Here are test results....

Royal Purple kicked that ass again didn't they?

[third_shift|studios]

that is too painful to watch man....!

[Sarge]

Yes the wear metals with Royal Purple is PAINFUL!!!!

Whats the group buy price ?

[Sarge]

I dunno.....It is posted up in the sales section....ask CompSyn to get off his ass and get us some tiered pricing.

[SleeperC5]

Found it. It's 10% the retail price.

[Zapper2003]

Thanks Sarge. So I'm gonna go ahead and say that Pennzoil motorcycle oil is good stuff then, judging by the chart? Followed by Castrol GPS? Those are the easiest to get ahold of, which is why I mention them above the rest.

[Sarge]

Yup.

[Zapper2003]

Alright, few more questions. We try to run conventional oil in our bikes, and they run hot, they're air cooled. Which oils run cooler than the rest that are Not synthetic? Also, price wise? We change our oil every 2k miles regardless of conventional, synthetic etc, so cost is definitely a factor.

[Sarge]

What your base oil is will have no effect on engine temps. Period.

Hugh? I’ve read in publications that the uniform molecular structure of synthetic oils have a lesser coefficient of friction when compared to natural occurring oils with irregular shaped molecular structures. The result as it reads is better heat control. Are we talking about two different things here?

CompSyn

[Zapper2003]

I too have read that synthetics run a bit cooler, but not very much. 5-10 degrees tops I think. *shrugs* Either way, we'll stick with conventional unless we need to switch.

Old info. In other words we are getting into the "synthetics are slipperier" debate and that doesn't hold water anymore.
Heat is generated by friction. Agree? Synthetics do not provide any less friction than SM rated conventionals. UOA/wear metals proove that. Now I am open but somebody show me where synthetics provide less friction. Now synthetics retain TBN longer/better add packs etc. I agree...but less friction....I havent seen anything to led me to believe that is true. It was maybe 20 years ago but not today. I think your publications are referencing the molecular structure was comparing GrpI to PAO....I challenge you to compare GRPII cracked base oils and molecular structure and show me where that advantage is today. Check out today's conventional processing of base oils and get back with me

[Zapper2003]

Okay. What the hell ever you just said!



Sooo I'll run conventional. Thanks for all the info.
