[QUOTE="PistolWhip, post: 10243393, member: 30361"] In Ford GT engine testing, as I'm pretty familiar with the standard procedures, the oil was probably changed more often than you change your underwear. Engine tests are not done in order to prove lubricity or anti wear characteristics of oil. You also don't know what was added to that oil that was used in the GT engine testing. Someone that's so interested in statistics should have an open mind to that. The reasons Ford recommends their oil is #1 because they label it and therefore make money off of it. #2 they are forced by Federal Regulation to warranty your emissions equipment long after your engine warranty expires. Do some research on the FoMoCo oil and you'll see that there are hundreds of OA's proving its sub standard capabilities in terms of anti-wear and lubrication. [/QUOTE]
