Bean how much additive did you add. I changed my oil and it helped a little but the additive is cheaper than driving to get the tuning messed with. Did you guys use just 3 bottles like it says to?

I added the 3 pints of Schaeffers Moly EP to my T6. Seems a bit quieter but hard to tell. Noticed my truck started using the Rottela T6 a little. I will be switching to Schaeffers 9000 shortly. Is it recommended to add the Moly EP to the 9000?

I do about mid mileage of the OCI. In other words if I changed oil at 3K I would add a bottle @ 1500. Also depends on the HPOP you are using and how you are driving it. But it will not hurt for sure.
I do not think you NEED it with normal OCI 3-5k but I like to have things at their best even though real world benefits maybe insignificant. IMO the harder you beat on your truck the more its worth it. When my bypass goes back on it will go in much later as I use it keep vis in a given range. But I use UOA etc to figure OCI with the addition of 1 mic bypass filtration.
For those that can afford to buy in bulk look into the 5gal buckets. That's all I use. At the very least you now have a 5 gal bucket you can put to use when its emptied.

Thanks TARM, I was thinking it would make sense to use the oil some and when it starts to shear put the additive in there. That makes sense. Also a man can never have enough 5 Gal buckets!

I just bought old school stealth Dual pumps, dual ipr, quad feed. I've been running delvac 15/40 forever but it's pretty beat at 3k miles with a stock hpop. What would be the recommendation on oil? I drive like an ass hole with a lot of stop and go. Should I go full synthetic? 7000/9000? Extreme blue is availible locally aswell as amsoil. I'm thinking extreme Blue the shaffers ep at 1500 miles.
YeS buy synthetic! The base oils are far superior to the damage that duals would run. I won't even put Dino oil in my lawn mower. I too drive stop and go and drive it like I stole it constantly. I however think quality oil shouldn't need more additive when in use. Makes me doubt the oil just my.02

This is true but at the same time you do have to understand that the farther apart the winter or cold viscosity rating is from the standard or hot viscosity rating the more viscosity modifiers are used. The modifier get used up much faster than the base oils viscosity. This is why you see such a quick drop in viscosity. This can worry some people. But if high quality base oils are used this will tend to level of and the rate then slows dramatically to where its not an issue with anything considered a normal OCI.
Take two syn oils same quality one 15w40 and one 5w40. The 5w40 will have a larger initial drop than the 15w40 will. But after that they will both decrease from that point the same all things being equal. IMO as long as that initial drop does not take you outside a viscosity that is recommended for your motor all is good. 30w IMO is perfectly fine as long as the other parts of the oil makeup is good. All the Schaeffer's oils are from some of the best base oil stocks available and IMO have some of the very best additive packages of any oil.

Schaffers 9000 can be ordered from beans for cheaper then ex blue from napa but i think I'd like to use something I can get 5 miles from my house or on the road anywhere.. I definitely should switch to synthetic. Amsoil is too expensive $36 a gallon, ex blue is 28 and schaeffers 9000 is $26 I'd also like to pick something and stick with it.

dam! that ex blue is about $8 more then just about anywhere i can get it at.
I pay around $20 for Schaeffers 9K when I got it in the gal. It may be a bit cheaper now that I get it in the 5gal. I usually am getting it along with SoyShield, Moly EP, grease, citrol. Then at times All trans and Gear oils and there as well. Just started using their chain saw oil. Usally do 2 orders a year. But now I can get it locally (about 2hrs) and he gives me same pricing so I can buy in less vol if I wanted. But honestly I like the 5 gal buckets with my pump.

I am going to have to look into Schaeffers,,,,

So what oil out there has the best anti-Sheering properties ? From my research over the past few days leads me to a 15/40 syn or semi syn such as schaefers 7000 over the 5-40 9000
