i think this is similar is many ways to asking the question about the best gasoline... oil mostly comes from the same base oil.
the oil itself is the same more or less.. unless it's synthetic. unless you're tracking the car and using the engine at high rpms quite often and putting to extreme use... i really don't think you need to worry so much about the "best" oil.

for normal spirited driving, the frequency of your oil change is more important and far exceeds the advantage of using the "best" oil, whatever that may be.

Amsoil.

Royal purple sucks *****.

Contact Sacicons. He is a Amsoil distributor.

But for the money, Mobil 1 is gonna be your best bet.
