Wondering what you run
1st- on the list would be-Branpenn
2nd- would be- Joe Gibbs
3rd- would be Shaffer's
4th- would be Valvine VR1
What do i run? Valvoline VR1
Because it's readly available and the other 3 are not without ordering cases at a time plus shipping.
All of them are in my opinion a cut above anything that AMSOIL produces because they want too be POLITICALLY CORRECT.

It would be hard for me to believe that that the petrolium based oils are better then AMSOIL since petroium based oil start breaking down at 250 degrees and AMSOIL starts breaking down at 500 degrees.
Alot of circle track engnes we build rules will not allow oil coolers and all of our customers use AMSOIL with zero problems. The y seem to be happy with the results plus alot less oil changes with a good syn. oil
My self and my customers have seen th differance using a good oil.
In fact when we break cams in we use the CENPECO 20/50 as it has 2400 PPM of zinc and my next choice would be Brad-Penn as it has appox 1800 PPM of zinc.
I don't even sell AMSOIL but highly recomend it in my engines I build and my personal vehicles.

Best thing I have found in a non-systethic oil is Pennzoil 25-50 Nitro blend, is made for alcohol/nitro use, seems to hold up better than anything else in a conventional oil with alcohol. I can get up to 40 runs on a change and it still looks good on the way out, and does not "milk-up" bad like most others do. This is different than the 20/50 blend they sell, costs about $4 a qt. When I ran junior dragsters best thing out there was Royal Purple 11.
Just my 2 cents worth.

Did you know in your regular vehicles or your tow vehicles, you can get between 2% and 22% better fuel economy just by changing your oil.
