You know what would be interesting, this will probably go no where but it would be a great conversation and we wouldn't have to wait a century for mileage to accumulate, if a bunch of us pooled together, started and thread, and did an oil analysis, but not just any oil analysis. Posts with detailed engine specs, spring pressures, type of camshaft, which oil filter and air filter used, what brand of oil, driving habits throughout that span, and see how it's doing after 2000 or 3000 miles. Post the analysis and compare. Real results will be right on the paper.
Maybe we'll find out that some cheaper stuff might be working well or maybe the expensive stuff isn't doing any better, whether that be oils or filters. Might even find out if our oil filter of choice is worth anything. It would be a neat thread if we could get enough participants for a wide variety of oils and filters used. Post it for everyone to see and let those make what should be their own more educated decisions. At the very least others will find piece of mind with their choices while others may find problems they didn't know they had.
Just a thought.....
