Trying to find a conventional 5/20 that has the most moly. I have tried searching but I didn't do very well. Does anyone have this info or possibly a link ? Does the "high mileage" version of a particular brand usually have more, and is it cool to use HM on a perfectly fine,90K mile, engine (no leaks, no consumption, etc) ? Thanks for any advice you can provide.
Most Moly

Pennzoil conventional - yellow bottle - has a lot of Moly and is a conventional.
A HM oil won't hurt a thing.
The most moly in a conventional I am aware of is PYB as already mentioned, usually about 250ppm per analysis.

LiquiMoly MOS2 added to whatever oil you choose.
Or Redline.

older moly doesn't pass TEOST and may contribute to ring land deposits. Ring sticking is the biggest problem lubing an engine IMO.
Why do I have a feeling...that ring sticking is problem only in US of A?

To decrease friction and wear or make an engine smoother and quieter.
Not all engines are as smooth as your Fords doing 10K OCIs

If that is true, I doubt it has anything to do with oils used. That would have to do with too much time spent idling/barely rolling, in rush hour traffic.

Is this why Valvoline started taking out the moly in their oils? I wonder...

More moly doesn't mean better protection. I believe Infineum had a moly presentation that showed that the benefits of trinuclear moly continued to improve as moly levels increased, but then flattened out after around 80-100 ppm.
So if the trinuclear moly is being used, you don't need more than that
