I buy my Donaldson filter from my local Truckpro shop ... donaldson makes the filter and amsoil puts their sticker on it plain and simple ... do you really think amsoil manufactures all the stuff they sell? Even with their oils they buy the base oil from places like exxon/mobile and mix in a additive they buy from yet another source and put it in their own bottle .......

It is called blending and everybody does it.
Amsoil RP Redline and everybody else.
All proprietary formulas, some better than the other.
The same happens with Merlot wine which is blended
from many different grapes from different vineyards.
Not all wine is the same. Taste or price.
Not all oil is the same. Performance or price.
Different qualities at different prices.

.............................................
this link will answer all your questions
http://www.lubricantsandmore.com/why_use_royal_purple_oil.html
A DIFFERENCE THAT YOU CAN FEEL:
The most frequent comment from Royal Purple users is that they can feel the difference in their vehicle once they changed to Royal Purple. Royal Purple tipically improves horsepower. Horsepower that you can feel, up to a 3% gain in horsepower and torque. It also reduces fuel comsumption by as much as 5%, and most of all it tipically reduces emissions by up to 20%, depending on type of vehicle and how it is driven. How does Royal Purple do this?
SUPERIOR TECHNOLOGY CREATES SUPERIOR PRODUCTS:
Synerlec® is Royal Purple's proprietary, lubridcant technology that strengthens the oil to provide unmatched performance and protection. It also creates a ionic bond that adhears to metal parts for continous protection, even after shutdown. Synerlec® is the cornerstone of Royal Purple's automotive products.
HIGH FILM STRENGTH IMPROVES PERFORMANCE:
Film strength is a lubricant's ability to prevent contact between metal parts. It is the thin layer of oil that adhears to the metal surfaces when to pieces of metal are put together. Royal Purple's film strength is up to 400% stronger than other oils. High film strength produces less friction, this improves combution for more power better fuel economy and redused emissions. Because high film strength produces less friction it also produces less wear.
REDUCING FRICTION IMROVES PERFORMANCE:
If we take two pieces of metal and rub them against each other, two things begin to happen, the metal gets warm and we notice some type of wear. This is a result of friction. Royal Purple protects against friction. This is the primary purpose of oil, to reduce friction. When we reduce friction, the two pieces of metal rubbing against each other move eaiser, we can significantly increase horespower and torque, and reduce fuel consumption, emissions, engine wear and heat. Royal Purple uses premium base oils with a very low coefficient of friction. Royal Purple remains on the metal surface long after ordinary lubricants would have been squeezed out by pressure and heat.
INCREASED OIL LIFE SAVES TIME, MONEY AND THE ENVIROMENT:
Lubricants often have a service life of only 3000 miles due to oxidation which reduces oil's ability to lubricate. Oil's ability to resist oxidation is mesured by the ASTM's rigorous Thin Film Oxidation Uptake Test(TFOUT). The test is so severe that it lasts only 1300 minutes. Royal Purple not only surpasses leading mineral-and synthetic-based oils in the test, it also outlast the the duration of the test. Royal Purple superior oxidation stability enable oil changes to extend up to 12000 miles(or even more depending upon the equipment and its operation),saving miney, saving time and reducing the amount of used oil that must be disposed of.

Synerlec™ is the cornerstone for Royal Purple's high performance synthetic lubricants. Synerlec™ is Royal Purple's proprietary synthetic additive package that is performance proven in both industry and racing to make equipment run smoother, cooler, quieter, longer and more efficiently. Synerlec™ makes both the oil and the equipment last many times longer. To make the very best oil possible, Royal Purple combines superior synthetic base oils with our proprietary Synerlec™ synthetic additives. The result is a dependable, long life lubricant with all of the properties equipment needs to achieve maximum life and performance:
• Longer Oil Life
Royal Purple oils formulated with Synerlec™ last many times longer than other mineral and synthetic oils. Synerlec's protects against oil oxidation which causes oils to break down, thicken, form corrosive acids and sludge, varnish and lacquer deposits in equipment. This greatly reduces both the amount of oil purchased and disposed of. Equipment also remains cleaner and lasts longer.
• High Film Strength
Synerlec™ forms a slippery, super-tough, synthetic film on metal surfaces that protects bearings far beyond the ability of other oils. Royal Purple oils carry up to 700% greater loads than other mineral and synthetic oils. Like an insurance policy, this extraordinary film strength provides extra protection for bearings subjected to mechanical stresses such as misalignment, shaft flex, imbalance, water contamination or elevated temperatures that thin the oil.
• Reduces Bearing Vibrations
Royal Purple oils with Synerlec™ "micro-polish" contacting bearing elements. Smoother bearing surfaces improve "relative oil film thickness" and promote fully elastohydrodynamic operating conditions, which lowers bearing vibrations and operating temperatures while greatly improving bearing life. Bearings that would otherwise quickly fail due to diminished oil film thickness, can run normally for many years when lubricated with Royal Purple oils with Synerlec™.
• Separates Rapidly from Water
Water in oil means death to bearings. Many oils form "milky" oil-water emulsions which greatly shorten the life of both the oil and the equipment it lubricates. Royal Purple's industrial synthetic lubricants separate rapidly and completely from water so that the water can easily be drained from the bottom of oil reservoir. Synerlec™ forms a tough ionic bond with metal surfaces to effectively displace damaging moisture from bearing surfaces, thereby minimizing damage to bearings caused by "hydrogen embrittlement."
• Saves Energy
Cost of energy is the single largest expense in operating rotating equipment. Typically, energy cost will be 20-25 times larger than direct maintenenace costs. Thus, energy savings of just 0.1% can pay for 100% of oil purchases. Royal Purple's premium synthetic lubricants with Synerlec™ have an extremely low coefficient of friction that is proven to save energy over conventional oils. In rotating equipment, Royal Purple frequently provides energy savings from 1 to 3% or more. In most equipment, these savings exceed the total cost of the oil within several months, making what was once an "oil expense" into a profit center.
• Excellent Corrosion Protection
Royal Purple's tough Synerlec™ film forms an ionic bond on metal surfaces displacing corrosive moisture. This tough film protects during operation and acts as a preservative oil during shutdown. This same film provides instant lubrication on start-up until a full fluid oil film can be restored.
• Extremely Clean
Most oils are not clean. It's the dirty little secret that oil companies don't want to talk about. Clean oil is critical to equipment component reliability. Royal Purple is the only lubricant manufacturer that routinely ships oils with a typical ISO 4406 Cleanliness Level of 14/13/11 as verified by laser particle counter. This high cleanliness level alone can improve equipment reliability by 300-700%. These products are easily recognizable as they carry this label:
Clean Oil Greatly Extends the Life of All Equipment.
• Synthetic Solvency
Royal Purple's synthetic lubricants have a natural synthetic solvency that cleans up dirty equipment and keeps it clean. Clean equipment, like new equipment, runs better.
• Compatible with Seals
Royal Purple lubricants have excellent seal compatibility and can be used wherever traditional mineral oils are used.
• Compatible with Other Oils
Royal Purple lubricants are compatible with, and can be mixed with, other mineral oils and most other synthetic oils (not compatible with silicone or glycol synthetics).
• Environmentally Responsible
All Royal Purple lubricants are formulated with components that are TSCA listed. Meets EPA, RCRA and OSHA requirements. Some products are also biodegradable. Royal Purple also conserves resources by greatly extending drain intervals, reducing oil disposal and the energy consumption of the equipment it lubricates.

STREET APPLICATIONS
Why Should I use Royal Purple?
There are a variety of reasons to use Royal Purple, including increased horsepower, improved fuel economy, a cleaner engine with fewer emissions, reduced wear, reduced oil consumption, improved corrosion protection, and ultimately a longer lasting smoother and cooler running engine.
Why is Royal Purple better than other oils?
The superior film strength, created by the Synerlec technology in our oils, means that it offers 4 to 5 times better metal to metal protection than other oils, petroleum or synthetic.
Are your products compatible with other petroleum or synthetic based oils?
Yes. Royal Purple lubricants are fully compatible with all currently available petroleum, petroleum/synthetic blends, or full synthetic based oils.
If your street products are not 100% synthetic, why are they priced similar to a full synthetic?
The Synerlec technology provides the best protection and performance increases available, however, it is very expensive. We have blended our street oils to exceed the performance characteristics of any other blended or "Full" synthetic. If having a full synthetic is important, we have our racing line which can be considered a "Full" synthetic
How often should I change Royal Purple in my passenger car?
If your vehicle is under manufacturer’s warranty, we recommend following your manufacturers recommended oil change interval. If your If your vehicle is not under warranty, we recommend changing Royal Purple approximately every 10,000 – 12,000 miles. However, we recommend to continue changing the filter every 3000- - 5000 miles to minimize the accumulation of dirt, fuel and water.
Can I put Royal Purple into my brand new car?
We recommend switching to Royal Purple after the manufacturer’s first scheduled oil change. This allows the engine time to break-in (seat the piston ring to the cylinder wall). The exception to this is the diesel pickup (Ford, Dodge, Chevy, GMC). These use a very hard chrome moly piston ring under high compression and it takes longer for the rings to seat. In these applications we recommend switching to Royal Purple after 5000 – 10000 miles (depending upon engine loading).
Does Royal Purple meet the manufacturer’s requirements?
Yes, Royal Purple is "API Warranty Approved", so it meets or exceeds the requirements of manufacturer’s new car warranties.
I live in cold weather, what is the pour point of your oils?
The pour point of all of our SAE grade oils is less than –30 F and varies from oil to oil. This should be more than adequate as ambient temperature does not get that cold and wind chill does not effect motor oil.
Will Royal Purple cause my engine to leak?
Royal Purple will not cause an oil leak. In some instances, usually in older engines, there may be a bad seal or cracked gasket that is not leaking because it is filled with oil sludge, lacquer and varnish deposits. Synthetic oils are designed to carry away deposits, so it is possible to expose marginal seals after those pre-existing deposits are removed. If an engine leaks after putting Royal Purple or any other synthetic in, the oil is probably not causing the leak, it is exposing an existing leak. In these cases or in older cars where this might be a concern, it may be best not to recommend a very lightweight oil. In the long run, it is better to replace a faulty gasket than to leave those deposits in the engine.
What will putting Royal Purple into my older car do for me?
Royal Purple will breath new life into older engines. The polishing characteristics of the oil will help smooth out the cylinder walls and bearing surfaces. The film strength of the oil will help increase fuel mileage and keep the engine cleaner resulting in reduced emmisions, a big benefit to older cars.
Should I use an oil additive with Royal Purple?
No. We are constantly testing and have yet to find an additive that enhances the performance characteristics of Royal Purple. In fact, several of the additives, when added to our products can result in decreased performances rather than performance gains as claimed.
What should I use for a Manual Transmission Fluid (MTF)?
As always, if your car is under warranty, we suggest following your manufacturer’s recommendations. In most passenger cars we recommend using Royal Purple Max Gear 75W90. Some people may want to use something lighter, in which case, our ATF or Racing 41 would be good suggestions. Racers may even want to run the Racing 21 which is fine. Many new cars now use an ATF or engine oil.
Will Royal Purple help shifting in my automatic transmissions?
Yes, Royal Purple Max ATF has shown time and time again to help automatic transmissions shift smoother and run cooler.
Is it approved?
Yes, Royal Purple Max ATF meets both Dextron Type III and Mercon III specifications.
Can I use Royal Purple in my Harley?
Yes. Royal Purple has had great success in the Harley market. For pre-Evolution motors, our SAE 50 is recommended. For Evolution motors, we recommend Royal Purple 20W50. For Sportsters, Royal Purple 15W40 can also be used.
My Harley has a primary oil tank. Can I use Royal Purple?
Yes, Royal Purple will work in the primary oil tank. We recommend using the 5W30, Racing 21 or Racing 41.
Is Royal Purple OK for use on a motorcycle with a wet clutch? Yes, Royal Purple has been found to work very well in these applications.
RACING APPLICATIONS
What product should I use in my race car?
Royal Purple has several options for racers. Our "street oils" are formulated to outperform any of the other "racing" oils on the market. In addition, our line of Racing oils redefines the category. The Racing oils will offer even more protection than the street oils. With that said, the following are some guidelines that can be used when recommending which of our products to use. As a starting point, we recommend the Royal Purple Racing oil that is closes in viscosity to the oil the race is currently using. Eg. Racer using Kendall 20W50 Racing currently would generally be safe using Royal Purple 20W50 or can upgrade to our Racing 41. The tolerances to which the motor was built can play a role in an oil recommendation. Looser specs (e.g. greater than 3 thousandths) might require a slightly heavier oil than a motor built to tighter specs (e.g. 2 thousandths) to maintain idle oil pressure. As there is an inherent tradeoff between protection and performance, the following may help. Keep in mind that it is much easier to be conservative and try a heavier oil and then go lighter when comfortable.
Can I run your oils with exotic fuels (alcohol, methanol, nitrous-oxide, etc.)?
Yes. As illustrated above, Royal Purple lubricants can be used with exotic fuels. For the best protection, we have formulated our 11 and 41 Racing oils specifically with this in mind. These two oils are made to hold up even better than our other Racing oils in alcohol and methanol applications.
Does this mean that I should not run your other oils with these fuels?
Not necessarily, our other oils will still perform better than conventional Racing oils, the 11 and 41 have specifically taken these uses into account.
How should I break in my racing motor with your oil?
We recommend using a quality petroleum based oil for break-in purposes. As a general rule, follow your engine builder’s guidelines. On street setups, the rings should seat within the first 3 or 4 times the engine is brought to temperature. After the rings have seated, change to Royal Purple. It is not recommended to break in an engine using Royal Purple, as the film strength of the oil may not allow proper seating of the rings.
Can I use Royal Purple with coated bearings?
Yes, You can use Royal Purple on newly coated bearings with no mineral oil break-in required.
How often should I change the oil in my race car?
This can vary dependent on application and the level (amount) of contamination (i.e. dirt, fuel, water, etc). A good rule of thumb is to find out the racer’s current type of oil and oil change interval, if he/she is racing a petroleum oil, they should feel comfortable double or tripling their change interval. If he/she is running another synthetic, they can still feel comfortable doubling their change interval.
How will running your product effect my oil temperature?
In most instances, we have found that running our products can result in lowering oil temperatures by 5-20 F.
Why might my oil temperature increase with your product?
There have been isolated instances where we have received reports of temperatures increasing. Due to the head carrying capabilities of the oil, the oil is absorbing more of heat from the engine, and the oil is not being cooled efficiently. The solution would be a more effective oil cooling system.
What about running nitro-methane? Our full line of "Nitro" oils, have been specially formulated for use in high power nitro and alcohol applications. These oils are the same ones used by Cristen Powell’s, Jim Epler’s and Doug Kalitta’s Top Fuel Teams among others.
What do you recommend for a Lenko transmission? For the 5 speed transmission, our ATF or Racing 9 oil. For a 3 speed, ATF is the best bet.
I notice a heavy odor from the gear oil after a race. Is this normal? Why?
The extreme pressure additives in the gear oils do give off a distinctive odor and this can be magnified under extreme racing conditions. This is normal for API-GL5 hypoid gear oils containing sulfur/phosphorous extreme pressure additives.
Is it true that your oils lose their performances edge after 6 or 8 passes? (Drag Racing)
No. We have found no evidence that Royal Purple oils show deterioration in performance after being subjected to race conditions. It is possible that fuel dilution contamination may start to hinder the performance of the engine oil. However, dyno results do not support this claim.

In these applications we recommend switching to Royal Purple after 5000 – 10000 miles (depending upon engine loading).
Does Royal Purple meet the manufacturer’s requirements?
Yes, Royal Purple is "API Warranty Approved", so it meets or exceeds the requirements of manufacturer’s new car warranties.
I live in cold weather, what is the pour point of your oils?
The pour point of all of our SAE grade oils is less than –30 F and varies from oil to oil. This should be more than adequate as ambient temperature does not get that cold and wind chill does not effect motor oil.
Will Royal Purple cause my engine to leak?
Royal Purple will not cause an oil leak. In some instances, usually in older engines, there may be a bad seal or cracked gasket that is not leaking because it is filled with oil sludge, lacquer and varnish deposits. Synthetic oils are designed to carry away deposits, so it is possible to expose marginal seals after those pre-existing deposits are removed. If an engine leaks after putting Royal Purple or any other synthetic in, the oil is probably not causing the leak, it is exposing an existing leak. In these cases or in older cars where this might be a concern, it may be best not to recommend a very lightweight oil. In the long run, it is better to replace a faulty gasket than to leave those deposits in the engine.
What will putting Royal Purple into my older car do for me?
Royal Purple will breath new life into older engines. The polishing characteristics of the oil will help smooth out the cylinder walls and bearing surfaces. The film strength of the oil will help increase fuel mileage and keep the engine cleaner resulting in reduced emmisions, a big benefit to older cars.
Should I use an oil additive with Royal Purple?
No. We are constantly testing and have yet to find an additive that enhances the performance characteristics of Royal Purple. In fact, several of the additives, when added to our products can result in decreased performances rather than performance gains as claimed.
What should I use for a Manual Transmission Fluid (MTF)?
As always, if your car is under warranty, we suggest following your manufacturer’s recommendations. In most passenger cars we recommend using Royal Purple Max Gear 75W90. Some people may want to use something lighter, in which case, our ATF or Racing 41 would be good suggestions. Racers may even want to run the Racing 21 which is fine. Many new cars now use an ATF or engine oil.
Will Royal Purple help shifting in my automatic transmissions?
Yes, Royal Purple Max ATF has shown time and time again to help automatic transmissions shift smoother and run cooler.
Is it approved?
Yes, Royal Purple Max ATF meets both Dextron Type III and Mercon III specifications.
Can I use Royal Purple in my Harley?
Yes. Royal Purple has had great success in the Harley market. For pre-Evolution motors, our SAE 50 is recommended. For Evolution motors, we recommend Royal Purple 20W50. For Sportsters, Royal Purple 15W40 can also be used.
My Harley has a primary oil tank. Can I use Royal Purple?
Yes, Royal Purple will work in the primary oil tank. We recommend using the 5W30, Racing 21 or Racing 41.
Is Royal Purple OK for use on a motorcycle with a wet clutch? Yes, Royal Purple has been found to work very well in these applications.
RACING APPLICATIONS
What product should I use in my race car?
Royal Purple has several options for racers. Our "street oils" are formulated to outperform any of the other "racing" oils on the market. In addition, our line of Racing oils redefines the category. The Racing oils will offer even more protection than the street oils. With that said, the following are some guidelines that can be used when recommending which of our products to use. As a starting point, we recommend the Royal Purple Racing oil that is closes in viscosity to the oil the race is currently using. Eg. Racer using Kendall 20W50 Racing currently would generally be safe using Royal Purple 20W50 or can upgrade to our Racing 41. The tolerances to which the motor was built can play a role in an oil recommendation. Looser specs (e.g. greater than 3 thousandths) might require a slightly heavier oil than a motor built to tighter specs (e.g. 2 thousandths) to maintain idle oil pressure. As there is an inherent tradeoff between protection and performance, the following may help. Keep in mind that it is much easier to be conservative and try a heavier oil and then go lighter when comfortable.
Can I run your oils with exotic fuels (alcohol, methanol, nitrous-oxide, etc.)?
Yes. As illustrated above, Royal Purple lubricants can be used with exotic fuels. For the best protection, we have formulated our 11 and 41 Racing oils specifically with this in mind. These two oils are made to hold up even better than our other Racing oils in alcohol and methanol applications.
Does this mean that I should not run your other oils with these fuels?
Not necessarily, our other oils will still perform better than conventional Racing oils, the 11 and 41 have specifically taken these uses into account.
How should I break in my racing motor with your oil?
We recommend using a quality petroleum based oil for break-in purposes. As a general rule, follow your engine builder’s guidelines. On street setups, the rings should seat within the first 3 or 4 times the engine is brought to temperature. After the rings have seated, change to Royal Purple. It is not recommended to break in an engine using Royal Purple, as the film strength of the oil may not allow proper seating of the rings.
Can I use Royal Purple with coated bearings?
Yes, You can use Royal Purple on newly coated bearings with no mineral oil break-in required.
How often should I change the oil in my race car?
This can vary dependent on application and the level (amount) of contamination (i.e. dirt, fuel, water, etc). A good rule of thumb is to find out the racer’s current type of oil and oil change interval, if he/she is racing a petroleum oil, they should feel comfortable double or tripling their change interval. If he/she is running another synthetic, they can still feel comfortable doubling their change interval.
How will running your product effect my oil temperature?
In most instances, we have found that running our products can result in lowering oil temperatures by 5-20 F.
Why might my oil temperature increase with your product?
There have been isolated instances where we have received reports of temperatures increasing. Due to the head carrying capabilities of the oil, the oil is absorbing more of heat from the engine, and the oil is not being cooled efficiently. The solution would be a more effective oil cooling system.
What about running nitro-methane? Our full line of "Nitro" oils, have been specially formulated for use in high power nitro and alcohol applications. These oils are the same ones used by Cristen Powell’s, Jim Epler’s and Doug Kalitta’s Top Fuel Teams among others.
What do you recommend for a Lenko transmission? For the 5 speed transmission, our ATF or Racing 9 oil. For a 3 speed, ATF is the best bet.
I notice a heavy odor from the gear oil after a race. Is this normal? Why?
The extreme pressure additives in the gear oils do give off a distinctive odor and this can be magnified under extreme racing conditions. This is normal for API-GL5 hypoid gear oils containing sulfur/phosphorous extreme pressure additives.
Is it true that your oils lose their performances edge after 6 or 8 passes? (Drag Racing)
No. We have found no evidence that Royal Purple oils show deterioration in performance after being subjected to race conditions. It is possible that fuel dilution contamination may start to hinder the performance of the engine oil. However, dyno results do not support this claim.
