I can say for a fact though that Castrol GTX, and Quakerstate sucks! I had the valvecovers off my old 83gt which I ran those two oils and there was allot of sludge (yes... every 3000 miles). I then switched to mobil 1 and after a few oil changes it was clean as a whistle. I had no leaks and it ran better also. The same goes for my 93lx to, I put in mobil 1 in it after 110,000 miles and no leaks plus a better running car.

Run what you want but it will last longer with mobil 1. Even if it does leak.

It is a no brainer that mobil 1 synthetic is the best oil and will perform better than others. The only issue is possible oil leaks.

I think Castrol phuckin rocks. Personaly I use a castrol synthetic blend on my high mileage CRX, Mobil 1 5-20 weight synthetic in my cobra and stang.
