Each brand advertises itself, with "proof", as the best.
Each loyal user believe his brand is the best.

The truth is, any major brand of the proper viscosity and API rating will be fine.

I run both right now and both are very good. I think I will go full amsoil just cause I can get amsoil for a bit cheaper than rp.

Thanks people. However, Amsoil is a little difficult to get in Amarillo, TX.

Royal Purple easier to get and just as good imho.. The RP filters are insane if you look at specs-micron filterization!!
