Royal Purple's the ONLY synth I could find in a 5w20.
I'm not saying it's bad. I really don't know either way. I'm just complaining that it's the only thing I could find.
Anyone find anything else, please let us in on it.
BTW, is it okay to switch brands of synth oil? Somebody told me you can't go back from synth to non-synth, but I never heard anything about switching brands.

Holcomb Motorsport sells Royal Purple for $4.30/qt. Wal-Mart sells Mobil 1 for $4.10/qt. So the price is about the same. I run RP on the Lightning and Mobil-1 in my Mustang. No preference one way or another.</font>

The only company for a fact that does is Amsoil product number xlmqt @ $5.20, I posted this on the NLOC board about 2-3 months ago.

Amzoil rules!! Only synthetic that is di-ester structured.Molecules are connected diferently than conventional synthetics and has greatest shear resistance of all oils.Talk to any dealer for shear spec sheet.
