Redline is one of the best, so is Royal Purple, and Mobil 1 is pretty good too.Go with the viscosity recommended by the manual, or ask at your dealership.

i dont have a 350 but i use mobile 1 when i've got money (car parts make me broke). but i use castrol syntec most of the time. change oil every 2k in the daily driver and my track car changes oil after every event

I use mobil 1. I dont change it every event because I can usually get 5-10 events on it before it changes color. once it darkens up i change it.

thats coo. everyone has their preferences. also another good thing to have is those really strong magnets to put on the oil filter

i use'em and they keep the oil cleaner, longer.

I change my oil every 2000 miles. I use synthetic 10W30 Mobil 1 Extended Performance with a K&N oil filter.

+1 on mobil one for any car, i also hear d alittle rumor that castrol quality never remains the same. they buy oil buy price range as it's imported and not completely by quality. can anyone vouch for differances in castrol?
