I can almost guarantee that your next UOA will look even better than this one. All your wear metals should fall, mostly due to the engine wearing in. Valvoline PB and Rotella T6 are both great options IMHO.

I've read that Rotella has issues with foaming. A web search will lead to discussions on it. I used to use it in my dirtbike, streetbike, and farm tractor. I don't any more. YMMV
