Ron: I run Mobil 1 in the Redbrier. I don't have any way of measuring any
results yet. I've also used it in my 5.0 Mustang since new (it's a '91),
changing it every 4-5 k miles. The Mustang currently has 147,000 and I have
never had any problems with the engine. It does use or lose 1/2 to 1 quart
in between changes. It does not smoke. It appears to have just as much
power now as it did when it was new. You may also want to consult with
Curtis. He is our resident lubricant specialist! Greg
