Thanks for the help guys. Just wanted to let you all know the car had 4 trailing spark plugs? Does this effect anything ? But i got the plug in the right order and also the right plugs 2 trailing and 2 leading. Just curious if the car was effected but just having 4 trailing plugs?

Go with 20/50. taht what TRI poing told me to use!!!. and use 5QT
and since Rotary spin this fast.. use heavey oil did not slow it down much.
TRY to use 15/40 on Z06(been there done that, hight Oil press but slow moving RPM...)
oh for spark plug, make sure you screw in there with hand first and tide it out wiht ranch. you migh damag it if you try to force it in by ranch or socket..

10w30 is fine, but i wouldnt recommend pennzoil it breaks down easy and leaves a yellow residue under the oil cap. but as long as your changing your oil every 2,000 miles and checking it every week you'll be fine. (i use castrol GTX 10w30)

No, its not crap, it is a marketing gimmick. Castrol makes good stuff. Getting people to think they need a high mileage motor for a high mileage car gets them to look only for those oils, which lowers their choices.
Crap would be high parafin content motor oils.
