Anyone here have any experience with Amsoil products? I'm a little curious about their PS fluid, and motor oil.

Sam, mostly what I've heard about Redline is that it is excellent as well. I've run it in my car and I had absolutely no problems with it. I know what you mean though about the engine story. Since I became a dealer, I've heard quite a few stories about amsoil as well, everything ranging from one of my sponsor dealers having an off shore racing boat he was sponsoring that lost an oil pump halfway through the race and the engine stayed together all the way to one of my customers gaining 3 mpg when the only thing he did was change to amsoil motor oil, not even changing his other lubes. While hardly scientific, I do think they're good reassurance stories for those of us who swear by our oils. IMO, there are a few oils in the top tier that will all hold together under extreme circumstances and I wouldn't turn my nose up at any of them. At the same time, I obviously have my preference... heh. That's why I wouldn't settle for middle tier oil... which after looking into it, I consider M1 to be (upper end of the range, but I have my biases... Kevin... are you listening? Huh? No more M1 for you!).
