Going to try out the Mobil 1 ESP 0w30 for my next oil change in my 5.7 hemi. I will also be adding a 15oz bottle of lubegard to add some more moly and use the royal purple 20-820 filter like I always use. I've been using schaeffers supreme 9000 5w30 for awhile and been happy with it but it's getting expensive and having to always pay for shipping is getting old. I want to switch to something i can grab off the shelf at the store.The Mobil 1 esp 0w30 comes highly recommended by Burla and Travis8352.

I used to use Mobil then i was told that the Pennzoil Platinum is the closest thing to Mopar brand oil so i swapped to that with Mopar filter..but do run the Mobil ESP in my daughters Civic along with Honda filter...but its really what ever you prefer as long as its a quality oil..i just dont trust parts store/walmart/or other box store branded oils

I like Zmax, it’s been great for me for years.

No offense intended, but I would argue that your engine is running well in spite of your using zmax. Most who really know motor recommending against using oil additives, as they can adversely affect the additive package that's already in your oil. It's your money and you're convinced it's doing something for you. So I doubt anything I say will change your mind on that. I'm just trying to save from spending money on snake oil. Anyone who is interested in running any additive should do their own research so they can make an informed decision.
