<VV> Best engine oil for late models

[Bryan Blackwell]

I did some looking around, the only off the shelf oil I could find  
easily that had a higher level of ZDDP - 1200 PPM - was Mobil One  
15W-50.  It's rated SM, but not energy conserving.  They recommend it  
for hi-po and flat tappet applications.  Hot Rod reported last month  
that Valvoline has an equivalent, but I haven't looked up exactly  
which one they are referring to yet.
