    I would pay for the good stuff and not worry about it. But there are others besides royal purple. Amsoil Severe Gear® 75W-140 is only $13.05 a quart with a preferred membership. I think around $15 regular price.

    I went with RP and lucas for the modifier, but any full synthetic will be good. Check out Amsoil also, maybe Valvoline
