Hello,
I used the search function and I didn't come up with anything.
For the past 22,000 miles I have been using havoline 5w30 in my 3.8 Camaro. A co-worker of mine said he switched from regular valvoline to maxlife and noticed about 25 miles extra per tank (same viscocity). He drives close to 100 miles to and from work so the driving conditions should be the same. I already get good feul economy but another .6 mile per gallon pays off over 7000 miles.
You also see magazine articles about switching to synthetic motor oil will increase your horsepower over dino oil. I am sure there are many factory that go into this MONEY being a large factor. Will a synthetic oil produce more power over dino oil?
Cliffnotes-
Is there an oil that should provide better feul economy over most dino oils? If so what is it? (dino and synthetic if possible)
Will syntetic oil increase your horsepower/torque?
