If your going to go the route of changing your oil frequently to flush your engine, why not use a conventional oil to flush with and save yourself some money? It sounds like your not keeping the oil in there long enough for it to break down, you just want it to carry out any particles to the filter (40-50 miles between changes). You could even add the EOS additive to give a little more slippery.
Maybe someone with more experience can confirm if this is ok.

I agree. Flush oil is best when its cheap. Use something with a ton of detergent.
