                  Mobil 1 5w-30 with an AC Delco filter only because it has been done since the the factory. I know AC Delco filters are like Motorcraft though and change manufactures ever few years. I just pray they aren't made by Fram!

                    I have Castrol 10w30 in right now with a motorcraft filter($14.99 kit from AA) After I get to 100 miles or First week of November I have some Mobil1 Synthetic 5w30 and a Fram filter to be installed.

                            I ran just cheap valvoline oil in my old v6 bird. The only oil that will touch the trans am is mobil 1 synthetic, I think I put 10W30 in last time. I just grab whatever valvoline filter is on the rack in our shop to fit my car. I noticed the previous owner had a mobil 1 filter on the car, but I didn't bother buying another.

                              They are complete garbage and have ruined engines. Stay away from them. In fact cut open the fram you do have just too see how poorly made they are.
