What motor oil?
I agree, Synthetics all the way.
Think about the fact that when you break in a brand new motor, you are NOT supposed to use Synth. oil because it doesn't actually allow the internal parts to wear or break-in properly...it's too slippery! Only after about the recommended first 1500 to 2000 miles, should you start using Synth. oil. If you're skeptical, ask around at your local machine shops, and even call Summit or Jegs Tech line.
I also know of some local drag racers that have switched to Synth. Tranny fluid, and upon doing so, the tranny temp. would run up to 20 degrees cooler (less friction) with NO other changes! If that doesn't prove it to ya than i guess nothing will! Just do some research on it, and see for yourself.

Definitely synthetic. I run Amsoil synthetic and it stays pretty clean even when it has been in the 4000+ miles. Keeps my mileage nice and high too, and car never sounds like it's struggling to crank up in the winter.
