Default RE: facts on the sludge monster

well besides penzoil what are some premium oils out there without going synthetic. this is where some opinionated answers come in but id like to know, quaker state, mobil 1, valvoline, what!?!
valvoline valvoline and valvoline.

i've had more engines apart in my lifetime than i care to really think about. i and every other mechanic i've worked with could tell which engines used pennzoil. my 98 t&c has close to or more than 250k on the original engine...valvoline products. after pulling the valve covers to put new gaskets on, there was no clean up rquired. not one spec of sludge or coking. my 2.7 stratus has 70k on it and the insides are spotless. if you really want your 2.7 to last...change oil every2500 miles. small investment for an engine thats known for hitting the graveyard early due to sludge.
