Very true. I've been using the Rotella/Lucas Oil heavy duty oil stabilizer combo on the same rods, block, and crank for the last 9 years. Have yet to hurt or spin a bearing. The stocker/flat tappet cam has yet to show signs of weakness but I haven't made enough runs to justify the oil combo yet. Time will tell. Much appreciate all the input and opinions on this post though, I will definitely consider putting a better grade motor oil in my stocker, might even find a touch of hp going to a higher performance oil.
