It's not like the Castrol is any better for your engine than the other good oils. The Mobil's fine

I've heard plenty of people on here say to make sure it's Mobil 1 Motorsport, not the regular Mobil 1 as it gets too thin when hot. (can't remember what spec either are though - try doing a search on the subject of oil, much has been written about it!)

Tim, think it's safe to say that Johnny already knows this, as the 15w/50 Mobil 1 is the "Motorsport" version

There is two grades of mobil 1 i've noticed, 0w/30 and 15w/50, it's the thicker 15w/50 i was going to use.

Think you can only get the Mobil 1 15w/50 in motorsport formula.

Check it out!
