I used to use penrite in my old car and now use Valvoline in the T not sure if its the dura blend though think its called syn power.IB uses it too in his T . Looks like you dont get what you pay forGood to see an aussie oil do so well to (penrite) Edited 22/01/07 11:10 AM by revheadrobbo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some interesting reading in there none the less, as one of the LS1 guys said it would be interesting to see how the oils performed if tested again after they had done 10,000 kms in a motor.
