What oil and filter?

What oil and filter are people using? Mine is not a every day driver. I had 2 5th Gen Camaro's before this one and have always used Mobil 1 and a Wix filter. Your thoughts and recommendations on the LT1 engine. Thanks

I've always used Mobil 1 on past vehicles, but I just ordered 12 qts of Pennzoil Ultra Platinum from Amazon. I'm looking for filter options now. I watched several tear down videos on Youtube and it looks like they're all pretty crappy.
