Do v8 fbody guys not use mobil 1 or a synthetic like it in their engine anyway?
There is a mobil 1 plaque under my corvette hood that says to only use a full synthetic.
When i get my 3.8L in (and finish my laser RS turbo engine) I will only run mobil 1.

You just change you oil using sythetic (filter change too of course).
Some people run a blend, but i figure why not go all out. I have heard something about not going back to regular oil afterwards though.

I switched to Valvoline synthetic and went a little over 7k miles without changing it and it was a little dirty, probably around 5k miles is how far you need to go. I seriously doubt there's any performance increase, but synthetic oil will help engine life.
