So should people who ask about ordering a ZL1 or how long their allocations were stuck at a certain number.

But this is a car forum for car enthusiast's to help other car enthusiast's, right?

Thanks for the backup here Vigilante. Well said, it is a forum for car enthusiasts and we're to help. I would do the same for others if I know a piece of info.

On another thread, the same "white male" said to someone else "Karen is here" because they were having an opinion on modifications so i should just copy and paste that and say Karen is here.

Karen, you can always hit back on your browser and ignore the post and keep it moving!

Just wanna note that there is small difference between Mobil1 ESP and ESP x3.
ESP was made for the LT1 and LT4 originally when they came out, ESP x3 was made to meet a Porsche spec and its slightly thicker, though still rated than 0w-40 as is ESP (the weight we use for our cars, at least SS and ZL1).
I shifted to using ESP x3 because its still dexos2 and figure a slightly thicker "same weight" oil will be better if I track more, or just in general. But you can't go wrong with either one.
I did consider Amsoil at one point since I had heard good things, but read the reason ESP and oils like it was better for our cars is due to them being direct injection and thus being susceptible to Low Speed Preignition, a phenomenon aggravated by high ash content which is based on the detergent package.

And I think it was specified already but ESP and Supercar are both the same thing, just relabeled.
My source for the above information was digging through other forums and using the spec sheets from Mobil1's website.
