B: You have never had a problem where something goes wrong with your email program ? I had a friend send me an email, and it came in over 200 times... Things happen in this wonderful Electronic Age...

C: M1 EP is better than the other 2 oils you mentioned, especially RP

Don't use Blackstone but use several others including Oil Analyzers.

Hey Doc. what is the going price for a crate (6 quart) of AMS? Along with the filter? I have about 1k left before my next oil change and have been wanting to start using AMS about 3 oil changes ago, but I never got around to getting some.
PM me if needed..
Thanks,
Nate

I had my tranmission oil changed for Amsoil. Shifting is certainly smoother now

You are doing a Great Job.... Carry On !!!!

I agree though... I have seen nothing to show how good this oil is... But I have heard of problems with it... and it is Expensive...
