Quick Timing Chain question...

I saw the post that CM made about DINO oil and how these motors are not designed for Synthetic oil. And to just use 10w-40 valvoline. I am going to try it in the new truck next change.(already have the oil and filter) But the pic I'm posting is from my 98 after using mobil 1 since 10k to around 160k when I installed the HS 1.7's. I think you could almost eat off them. When I swapped the rockers to my 2000 I was pleased to find it was just as clean under the valve covers at 78K. And I have no record of how it was maintained previously. But it was obvious that it was not neglected.
