I'm in the process of purchasing a 97 Camaro SS with the 5.7L LT1 and a 6 speed off a buddy of mine. The Engine has been bored/stroked to a 392 and makes roughly 420hp at the tires. It has probably 8k miles on the engine so it's broken in. I don't plan on it being my daily driver so the miles should be under 6k a year. I was going to go the Amsoil route but was wondering what everyone's thoughts were. The engine shares the same architecture as the old school Chevy small blocks 40 years ago with the exception of having a roller cam, reverse flow cooling, etc. As well as the Amsoil I was also considering using Pennzoil Platinum or maybe Royal Purple 5w30 with a K&N filter. Thoughts?
