Default Redline Oils

Anyone use Redline oil or heard anything about the oil? I've heard the use a different process and its a very good oil, but never used it. Right now I'm using Valvoline Maxlife. Is the Maxlife enough or will I actually benefit from a better oil?

I have some of their MTL that I'm about to put in my nv3500 cause I heard they were good too, but I haven't gotten around to changing it yet. The only thing I don't like about them is that no stores around me carry any of their products.

If I like their MTL, I'll probably use their motor oil in the 408 whenever I get it built.

Redline is good stuff. Their most innovative product IMO is their 'water wetter'.

I watched a movie in votech about valvoline and a couple others and they talked about what it does to your engine and how it compares to other oils on the market and we compared all the oils to eachother and since that day ive been using valvoline I wont buy anything else

I really like valvoline as well, they have a max life full synthetic but i can't find it at any store. I wish I could get some of that stuff.

Yeah I have never saw it either(of coarse Ive never looked for it). I see they have it on their site wonder why they dont sell it in like walmart or a auto parts store. I look more into that.
