Marc's recommendation 10w-40 for increased film strength.
Paul, if I lived anywhere near Haibeck Automotive I'd probably hang around the shop all day long, just to gain ZR-1 knowledge.

Yep! This is ZR-1 country. We're not called the "FBI" for nothing! Some of the very best meet here for pizza several times a year! It's an honor to live here in such a concentration of talent!

Re: May be of interest to Mobil 1 users.
I was trying to do a lot of research myself being a "new" Z guy... I read the discussions and articles on the "Mobil 1 High Mileage" having higher ZDDP, however when I went to the Mobil data site, it's showing the same as the other regular 10w30... I'm wondering if they've pulled the higher ZDDP out of the "High Mileage" as well.
The date on this document is March 2017. https://mobiloil.com/~/media/amer/us...pecs-guide.pdf

Re: May be of interest to Mobil 1 users.
Oh great! I just switched to it.
However, I am noticing an appreciable reduction in oil consumption.
