Rather than the best possible oil going and leaving for stupid service interval, you're better off using a cheap oil and changing more regularly.

Fortunately, with tradeclub, GM oil is reasonably priced, good quality, and perfectly suited :)

Shell Mobil 1?

Regular changes (every 5k at most) mean most oils are up to the job though.
