1. You're in the C5 section.
2. Marvel Mystery... really? Sounds like snake oil (I just use regular Mobil 1).

Would be better to ask this questio in a C6 Forum rather than the C5 Forum where you posted it, but I would not add that crap to the oil for any engine let alone a Corvette engine......

unless it has a compression problem, no, that stuff has honestly outlived a lot of it's usefulness with modern oils

if you want a better anti wear add pack buy the high mileage variant of mobil1
