about synth oil

There is more difference between brands of synthetic oil than there is between brands of non-synthetic. Far as I know, the only synthetics using PAO (Group IV) base stocks these days are AMSOIL, Mobil 1, Chevron, and Redline (from what I've read). The others use less expensive Group III (hydrocracked petroleum) base stocks, which can approach but not equal the capabilities.
In my possibly biased opinion, AMSOIL is the best and most cost effective (because of the longer drain interval). My second choice would be Mobil 1.
