Additives for the LS7?
Are any of you adding additives like Z-Max etc to your Z's?
Do they work?
What experience do you have with their results?
Thanks in advance!

Additives are wastes of money and can potentially do more harm than good.
Oil changes with good oil and filter along with a fuel injector cleaner is basically all that's needed to keep an engine healthy for many, many miles.

YEP! Don't be fooled by all the advertising hype about oil additives. Many of them can cause internal damage over a long period of time, especially those with PTFE. I add a bottle of injector cleaner to the gas tank at every oil change to help get rid of carbon build up in the combustion chamber.
