I used kendall 20w50 in race engines, though those saw 7-8 grand shifts, and lasted about a year.

I go to a local Toyota/Lexus specialist here in San Diego. They use Kendall liquid titanium and it cost me about $75.
I bought a new air filter for carb. I reinstalled the front engine pan. I did an oil change. VW specialist recommended I go to Kendall 20w50 to fix the oil light at idle.
I use full synthetic kendall and it runs beautifully.
Kendall GT1 10W30 - Volvo filter 1275810
Done every 5k miles by my local Volvo specialist because that's their default and I like it to be checked out frequently. It's the oil they use. 179k miles
I switched to Kendall GT-1 20w-50 high performance and I highly suggest it. You can get 12 quarts shipped to your door from Amazon at a good price.
I use to use Castrol Syntec 5W40 (what the tig came with) and all I could get here. Last spring I opened my own shop and can get Kendall 5W40 Euro and started using that as it is 502 approved. I found it made the engine run smoother and quieter. My customers have noted the same.
If you want it quiet and smooth, run 10w-40. If you want best mpg or live in the cold 1/2 the year, run 5w-30. 10w-30 is a-ite in many cases. It'll burn less than 5w-30....generally.
Kendall hands down makes the best dinosaur oil..... I run it in my BMW 2002 and my 94 2.0 ....
Ran Kendall 15x40 for a number of years, ran Shell T4 till it got oddly hard to find, currently running Delo 15w40
