Oil change

Been using Amsoil for last 30,000 miles Change filter every 6 mounths and oil annually (approx. 20,000 mules) I pull a 5er and have 125,000 miles on truck and it doesn't use a drop of oil. (Amsoil 10w30 heavy duty)

I use Mobil 1 oil and filter. 5-30w. Change oil every 3000 miles. I haven't had to add oil between changes and the engine runs super quiet except for the whine of the Whipple Supercharger which I enjoy hearing.

5W20 every 3,000. I just want to keep the crankcase as clean as possible and keep condensation out.
