Haha I agree Thats why I love this forum compared to other ones

I'm about to do an Oil change here and I went to autozone and walmart and I didn't see GC! Maybe someone around here has a bunch stacked up in their garage...

i'm debating whether to keep stocking up. There doesn't appear to be any shortage in my area.

I was thinking the other day that maybe Autozone noticed that everyone was buying up all the GC so they decided to continue stocking it.

my Autozone only stocks a little of it, Well when i bought them out it consisted of 6quarts.

But there is another one in a town next to me, if i wanted to stock up. I honestly doubt they will stop stocking it.

Im sure some crazy VW / BMW or Mercedes person needs it too... hmm and apparently the LS1 guys love the stuff too...

I know this is dredging this up from the dead but......

Has anyone sent their oil to Black Stone to see what the results are? If so, post them up in here so we can all see!

From the last oil report that I did they asked for a sample of the oil, maybe thinking that they add Silicon as an anti-foam additive.

Yeah, the local walmart and Canadian Tire is overflowing with this stuff. I'm pretty sure that I'm the only one in town who buys it.
