Default Engine Oil

I wanted to know what kind of engine oil should I put with a Ls2 superchargerd.
I mounted the kit Vortech V2, we say that the engine oil temperatures are not exactly low, because 'until now I have always put the 5w30 mobil 1.
And you think 'too much liquid? Or are there other compatible oil without causing damage to the engine?
Thanks...

Hey just read the oil info posted in this section. If its not a racing specific oil or diesel oil your shooting yourself in the foot. The Goverment EPA had all the oil co remove a **** ton of the Zinc and Phosphate from the oils which are a couple of the major lubricating properties in oil. They couldn't remove as much from diesel oils because of there heavy loads they are under etc...
