Engine Oil Brand

["Woolf,Richard" <richard.woolf@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I use straight 30W in my '66, but 10W-40 in my '73. The '66 with 115,000 miles does use a quart between changes (every 2000 miles). My '73 doesn't use any oil between changes, and that car has 80,000 miles.

Subject: IML: Engine Oil Brand

Hi everyone!

    I don't make many posts but I do read them religously. I have learned a lot from it. Anyway, I have a question. What BRAND of oil does everyone prefer and/or recommend? I have a 1970 LeBaron 4 Dr. hardtop with an original, unmodified 440 that has 140,000 on the clock. I have seen all the oil commercials and heard all kinds of crazy recommendations; but I want to hear what IMPERIAL owners put in their crankcase. All advice is greatly appreciated.

P.S. I currently use Castrol High Mileage petrolium oil 10W30. And while we are on the subject, what brand of oil FILTER does everyone use?
