Gulf Western Oils..

What are your experiences with GW? I've been thinking of switching, but want to know if they're of half decent quality first

i run the cheap 20/50 have had one engine apart after lots of abuse and it looked fine in the bearing department for a 340000km engine that had seen 15psi of boost

i probably wouldnt leave it in there for 10000km i normally do oil and filter every 5000 and if the cheap oil is ever going to fail it would be from all its detergents/additives etc being used up after lots of KM's
