I will stick with my high zinc mobil 1 for as long as I have my Z.

Sounds good Ed, it was from some threads here on the forum that I decided to use the High Mileage 10W-40 version of Mobil 1. I am real happy with my decision as mentioned above, especially with the absence of the chain rattle noise.
So what type of engine work did you have performed? Was it some type of maintenance issue or did you have something done to increase the performance?
BTW, I have used Mobil 1 for many, many years in 99% of my vehicles without any complications whatsoever...I like their products.
Although I will admit that our '03 Pontiac Vibe which now has 162,000 miles plus has never used anything but conventional oil all of its life. Still runs great and hardly uses any oil.......
