Buy Mag 1 603 10W-40 SN Synthetic Blend Motor Oil - 1 Quart Bottle

Customer Ratings:

I bought this for my older Chevy because newer oils don't have adequate amounts of Zinc additive for flat tappet cams for wear resistance under load and this(Mag1) does. It's considered semi-synthetic with additives for higher mileage engines. At just over $3.00 a quart and free shipping, you can't go wrong. Available in all the popular weights too.

Opti-2 34oz. EZ Measure Bottle Review

Customer Ratings:

I use this in an 2 cycle engine that normally runs high temps in the low 500's. I actually notice lower temps in the 440-460's when I use Opti-2. I ran out one time and used another oil and it was back up to 520's. Once I got back to using the Opti-2 again the nice cooler temps came back as well as slightly better gas mileage...if it works that good I'm happy!

But, this is about the bottle I guess. Once I squeezed the amount I wanted into the chamber to pour, the oil seemed to keep coming into the fill chamber. Not sure why. The other cap was tight, guess I'll have to play with it a bit. Even if I can't get the bottle to work right, I like the oil so well I'll keep buying it anyway.

This is by far one of the best oil filters on the market. The studies I've read about synthetic media filter shows that they filter exceptionally well. You can actually feel the quality of this filter when you handle it. It is sturdy and hefty. The weight of the filter gives about the amount of filter material available. And one bonus that I love is the nut, which makes removes a snap.

Been using K&N filters in our tow vehicle for years. Now we use them in all our vehicles. Thick outer shell doesn't crush when squeezed by an oil wrench. No burrs around the threads like cheaper products.

Best Deals for K&N HP-2010 High Performance Oil Filter

The K&N Performance Gold oil filter is the best for racing because:

1.The 1" nut welded to the end makes removal quick and easy.

2.Drilled safety wire holes for racing.

3.Metal leaf spring provides a positive, leak-proof seal between element and lid.

4.Thicker walls and end plate gives over 550 psi bursting strength.

5.Resin-impregnated filter media provides maximum filtering surface for contaminant removal.

6.Steel inner core provides extra structural support to prevent filter collapse.

7.Bearing-Saver Anti-Drainback Valve eliminates "dry" starts.

8.Rolled threads provide protection against stripping.

9.Leak-proof double rolled seam.

10.Internally lubricated gasket allows easy installation and removal.

11.Unaffected by racing fuels, MTBE, and E-85.

12.Low pressure drop flows 12-16 gallons per minute.

NO OTHER automotive oil filter meets these specs -BUT -like all other things that seem too good to be true, the K&N Performance Gold has 2 MAJOR drawbacks:

1. The same 10-20 micron filtering ability that allows those super-high flow rates also means that the oil filter is only 90% (K&N's numbers)efficient.

2. That 90% efficiency also means that the filter allows larger dirt particles to remain in the oil, and you're stretching your luck by running the K&N oil filters for more than 3,000 miles. That super-duper synthetic juice isn't any good when it's full of dirt, so the advantages of long-life synthetic oils are lost on the K&N's high flow-rate capacity.

Once again, we're looking at a trade-off --

If you NEED the K&N's RACING advantages more than you NEED the 5,000-mile filter-change intervals, then the K&N is PERFECT for you.

If you NEED to use synthetic oils and go for the longer (5,000+) change intervals, I suggest a different brand of oil filter.

The BOSCH Premium Oil Filter #3410 that crosses to the K&N #HP2010 is also made in the USA. It doesn't have the hi-flow features of a K&N, but the BOSCH "FILTECH" filtration media advertises a 98% efficiency, and can go for 5,000 miles with API "SN", ILSAC 5, "Dexos1" approved full synthetic oil (5W30 Pennzoil Platinum). Remember that a high-efficiency filter will CLOG SOONER, so pushing your oil filter for more than 5,000 miles is neither prudent nor thrifty. Actually, stupid is what it is !! You CANNOT repair the damage done by a clogged filter by replacing the filter !!

For EXTENDED oil-and-filter change intervals, Mobil 1 offers an "Extended Life" oil filter that's made just for "Extended Service" synthetic oils -but is NOT available (due to size restrictions) for all vehicles. There is no Mobil 1 Extended Life Oil Filter available that crosses with the K&N #HP2010 or the Bosch #3410.

Non-racing applications of today's modern gasoline engine specifications can best be met with the use of full synthetic oils that meet the latest API "SN", ILSAC 5, and Dexo1 specs. The API "SN" designation allows for use in ALL gasoline engines, including supercharged and turbocharged gasoline engines from ALL manufacturers.

If you're wondering just which is the best oil for YOUR particular vehicle, go to the Mobil-1 website and look for the "Best Oil For My Car" tab. Answer a few questions about your engine, and they'll give you the correct VISCOSITY specifications according to their manufacturers' data-base.

Use whatever BRAND of oil that you want -it's the API-ILSAC Specifications and the PROPER VISCOSITY of the oil that matters most.

The old myths of "thicker oil lubricates better" and "more detergent means less oil" are long gone -the new synthetic formulations have made it easy for anyone to have the best lubrication available.

Selecting the right lubes and filters for YOUR driving requirements is an important part of vehicle ownership.

Good Luck !!

Great filter; seems to do a great job (every 5000 miles w/Royal Purple). MUCH easier to take off my '07 Explorer V8. Can only reach front of filter and nut makes it much easier to remove.
