Hunt to find the best possible oil.

[Chuck W.]

Hey Lucas..... For 12 years I used Mobil One 0w-40. Last year I switched to Joe Gibbs DT40 5w-40. I just completed my second oil change with Joe Gibbs and I am awaiting the Blackstone report on it. I understand that it takes two oil changes to derive the results when changing oil brands.
