    Is GC the best choice for an Acura 3.2?

    Ballistol as a fuel additive

    Militec-1

    Has anyone tried militec-1 in motor oil? A mechenic (ASE certified) told me that it has stopped piston slap in the Chevy 6.0 engines. He said it doesn't change the viscosity of the oil and works even after it has been drained at oil change. I'm skeptical,has anybody else heard of this?

    '06 Chevy 2500HD 4x4 oil 5w-40 synthetic?

    I have a new 2500HD 6.0 liter. I do some towing, about 5500 lb trailer. My other vehicles use Rottela-T 5w-40 synthetic. Is it O.K. to use this or should I use 5w-30 (mobil-1)? My manual calls for 5w-30. Will 5w-40 cause any harm?
