Oil/Lube and Additives ?
What brand/weight of oil and additives are you running in your ZO6? How often do you change the oil? Have you ever replaced the lube in the tranny/rear end? What did you replace it with? Kind of a general information questions. I'd just like to see what everyone else is doing regularly.

Mobil 1 5W30 synthetic for oil.
Techron in the gas tank at least once a year to clean out carbon deposits, and always use Top Tier gas stations when you fill up: http://www.toptiergas.com/licensedbrands/
If you ever decide to change the transmission fluid, many members on here really like the Royal Purple Syncromax which they say provides for an easier shifting/nicer feeling transmission.

Mobil 5-30 synthetic in the motor, once a year in the spring before I drive it the first time (I drive it up on ramps when I park it at the end of every year). Additives, no
Only 94 octane Chevron gas
Replaced both the tranny and rear with Amsoil stuff
