Which Synthetic To Use?



Hey gang,

  I am trying to settle for myself, once and for all, which synth. motor
oil to use. I of course loved Mobil 1, but since I put on about 3600 miles
a month (and thus prefer to do the oil change at said mileage), the expense
of once a month oil changes gets a bit annoying.
  For the first time this past month, I used the Castrol Syntech. I am
assuming this "partial" synthetic oil is more standard dino than synth.
But, what are the ratios? Any ideas? Lifter noise has not been really
evident since switching from Mobil 1. However, am I being penny-wise and
pound foolish? All thoughts and experience welcomed.

Thanks all,
Mark
