Amzoil engine oil

Does anyone here run amsoil in their stock/superstocker? What weight? I picked up a sponsor from a small amsoil rep and he wants me to try some. I have never used any amsoil products so any info would be great, thank you

I've been having good luck with the Amsoil 10w-30 synthetic Dominator race oil in my Super Stock 427. Other than a rod bearing issue I had last year, which was not due to the oil I am using, the bearings look perfect every time it's apart. I also use their synthetic ATF and gear lube with good results.

I have never used it but member "Locomotion" has used it for years and should have a meaningful response when he sees this.

The first thing about having Amsoil as a sponsor is making sure you spell their name correctly. LOL . That being said I have used their products for years in my Race quads and sleds. Also have used their assembly lube in engines.

Great oil, I use 10w30 in my stocker

We have ran it for a long time. Actually had the oil pump pick up break off and made entire 7800 rpm dyno pull with 10 psi pressure and the bearings looked new. Yes, the dyno operator was a bit red faced, but it turned out alright. That's what really sold us on it. We use the 10-30 Dominator, but I know some people with tighter bearing clearances than us run the Dominator 20w all the time. I've been told its slower than most oils on the dyno, but if your looking for protection, its a great choice.
