Most of the published information on oil additives has been negative, very 
little to be gained except gunk in the engine. Want an engine to last a long 
time and run well?
Use a high quality synthetic like Mobil1 or Castrol Syntec and change it 
frequently.

Only exception I've seen has been some stuff called Miltec or Milspec (sp?). 
Having said that I disavow any direct knowledge, YMMV, yadda-yadda-yadda, etc.
