A friend ran Total synthetic oil in a big block chev. Engine was powering a race boat, huge HP. Flipped the boat at around 100mph recently, hull & drive-train were totalled. The engine internals were as good as new. It's good shit, the WRC guys are sponsored by them & they don't come cheap (unlike Dover).

the higher the API rating, the better quality it is
eg S = For petrol engine. The second letter designates the quality level
A= lowest quality, so L = a very high quality. The motul oil i use is only a SJ.

Cool as long as its as good as motul, is the stuff you use synthetic???
