Amsoil and Redline are the best, but only slightly better than Mobile 1. Not enough to jump through hoops if inconvenient to ship to your house.

Moblie 1 filter and Mobile 1 oil is the best off-the-shelf synth oil you can buy.

Depends what your application is and what is most important. If reduceing friction and takeing extreme heat is most important then Redline is best. If extended drain and cost is important then Amsoil is best buy. If it is just about money then Mobil-1 is cost leader for true 100% synthetic and very few people will own a car or truck long enough to see the added benifits associated with Amsoil. The thing I like about Amsoil is that they have a product to suit all of my lubrication needs includeing multiple filtration systems! They are also the only premium oil company that offers a discount that can be purchased every year to get reduced rates. Redline and mobil-1 do not offer bypass filtration units or air filter. Mobil-1 does not offer a transmission fluid for our Dodge trucks at all either!

Well Joe if money is no object thenit would be a tossup. I think Dynapure makes the best filter but filtatec also makes a kick but bypass filter. You also have gulfcoast, Frantz and Trabold. Seeing how most of us are only going to be putting these filter on a $1000-$5000 engine I think that Trasko,Frantz,Trabold, and Amsoil bypass filters will do just nicely. Currently I am leaning towards the Trasko filter. It is a full flow and bypass in one case and spins onto the stock location. It is uses a reusable 8 micron screen on the full flow side and a tightly wound paper filter that looks like a TP roll on the bypass side. Intitial cost is $70 and you only need to change the filter cartridge($9.95) every 10,000 miles. Their advice on changeing the oil is pretty much the same as Amsoil's adice. I put a link to Trasko on the General board for anyone interested. It is listed under "Cheap Bypass Oil Filter"!!!

Yes, this thread was last posted to in 2003.

... AND ... My how things have changed ...

... Oil at $55 a Barrel and Gasoline Over $2.00 a Gallon

REDUCE OUR DEPENDENCE ON FOREIGN OIL WITH AMSOIL

Amsoil Synthetic Motor Oil / ATF / Gear Lube ... ALL EXTENDED DRAIN !

AMSOIL has 30+ years of oil analysis data showing their oils provide extended interval drain service capabilities. Big oil companies can't argue with that data or explain it away. They would prefer that you "buy into the myth" of 3k mile oil changes because it adds profits to their bottom line.

AMSOIL offers extended drain intervals because we start with superior base oils and and the additive package is properly balanced, blended, and capable of performing for extended drains.

Now the entire industry is moving in that direction. It has been published that automotive manufacturers will be recommending extended drain intervals of up to 15,000 miles in the near future (they already are in Europe) ... because that's what consumers want.

Amsoil's Extended Oil Drain Interval: It is the right thing to do for the consumer, for the environment, and a way to reduce american dependence on foreign oil.

Longer Drain Intervals = less oil used.

REDUCE OUR DEPENDENCE ON FOREIGN OIL WITH AMSOIL

Industry tests have shown improved fuel economy of 2 - 5% in vehicles using synthetic lubricants. Many AMSOIL customer testimonials tell of even greater savings. If all cars in America used AMSOIL synthetic motor oil, gear lubes and drive train fluids, we would save enough fuel to eliminate our need for thousands of barrels of oil.

As mentioned earlier, there is another way to reduce oil usage. AMSOIL synthetic motor oils are designed for extended drain intervals and reduce the amount of oil used by as much as 80%.

Fewer oil changes means less oil used.
