Read this one : Re: [V8] Response to "Re-investing in my 93 V8Q"

[Jason Wilkerson]

Sorry about the blank post,
  My car has 178K on it and I had the whole upper part of the motor apart
at 160K for leaks - looked perfect, a little gummy but not bad, no wear. I
have used conventional castrol 20w-40 and Mann filters since 116K, My dad
used synthetic from 60K to 116K, and before that who knows? - My point is
this, synthetic is fine if you've got the money, or if you are going to
race it daily, but for me the conventional is just fine.  And, gasp!, I
don't change my oil but every 6K (sometimes 7K) - the car runs like a
champ.  My v8 is to the point in life where a synthetic oil change could
total it ;)

                           I feel the scowls of the purists,
                                                        Jason
