Best conventional oil

I am going to have to go with Brad Penn as they offer their dino oil with higher levels of additives then SM GF3 oil does. I think the additive package is more important then the base stocks assumeing everyone is using at least a G-II base stock blend or higher.

Sure seems to be a lot of experts here today.

Supertech is a great value. I've ran it many times for 6 mo/5k miles. Not a single problem ever. No sludge or varnish.
VALVOLINE OF COURSE !
Kinda surpised at all the love for Valvoline. Good oil but IMO it's not worth a premium to Motorcraft Syn Blend and PYB.
Don't know what the best is, I buy name brand on sale. Price being the same I'd take:
1) Motorcraft Syn Blend
1a)Pennzoil YB

Maybe Valvoline fans have been the silent majority and just decided to speak up for a change!
Kidding aside, I simply do not believe that PYB is the cure for the common cold like so many people think it is. It's a great conventional, but no better than Valvoline, IMHO. Run either for a normal conventional OCI and guess what? You'll have a wonderfully performing, clean engine and won't know the difference.
