Based on the price the Valvoline is probably a GIII synthetic, i.e. not a true synthetic. But I'm sure it will do the job just fine.

I think I'm going to switch over to Amsoil as well. Buy it from a store? Thats so 20th century, I'll just order it online. Driving around town looking for a place that has it is such a hassle, don't have the time.

LOL. I agree... but I've also found that the cost of shipping for several gallons of lubricant can be significant. If you find any screaming deals online, please let us know!

True, but I'm going to get two of my friends to order like 12 cases with me!

Actualy I wonder if I can get it wholesale from one of the marine suppliers I use. I'll have to check.
