It might have been older then. I remember it being a 360. And being a rust bucket. The inner front fender wells. Rusted out in no time.

Many of these brands are made by the same company.

Now that we seem to have that worked out, it’s time for the important question...
What kind of oil are you going to use?

Oil brand discussion is like virus. It causes a lock down.

I use Amsoil oil and filters in the Z. Everything else gets Mobil 1. Probably overkill using amsoil for the Z but I drive the car 2-4k a year and change it once a year so dont mind spending the extra cash. Most filter companies share media these days and make filters for each other so as Askmea? said they are probably made by the same company. I would just stick with wix, puralator etc.
