Sorry to reviive this from the dead, but I was just curious to see if there was any data posted for Redline vs others, given that lots of folks on here seem to like Redline...

After reviewing the tables and taking into consideration the limited number of samples, I'd have to say that Castrol syntec (really, all three tested Castrol oils performed very well) looks to be the most promising, with QuakerState Q being a close runner up (although, only a single sample).

I was disappointed to see Mobil 1 didn't do so well... have used that for years, and now I'm rethinking the meaning of the slight cam wear I had noticed on my old car's motor...

On that note, why are folks particualry enamored with Redline? Did it make a little more power on the dyno or something? I'm not dismissing it out of hand, just wondering if this is something of a "bandwagon" or if anyone actually compared a few Blackstone tests...
