Reposting this past article on our Signature Dexos R 0W-40 and 5W-50. They’re huge sellers in our Omaha location but want to get the word out about the supply here in Sioux Falls.

GM recently launched a new motor oil performance standard with its proprietary dexos R motor oil specification. Dexos R denotes 0W-40 and 5W-50 motor oils that can withstand the rigors of high-speed and high-load conditions created during high-performance driving. As of now, the specification only applies to high-performance engines used in Corvettes and Camaros.

Modern engines with high power density, forced induction, multi-point fuel injection, cylinder deactivation and emissions systems are driving demand for more advanced lubricants. High-performance vehicles push those technologies to another level, requiring a motor oil that can protect components operating in extreme heat and high-load conditions.

Testing is complete and AMSOIL Signature Series already outperforms the dexos R specification. The dexos R icon will be added to Signature Series 0W-40 and 5W-50 packages.

The GM dexos R motor oil specification applies to modern high-performance Corvettes and Camaros.

AMSOIL has pushed lubricant technology to new levels since 1972 when AMSOIL 10W-40 Synthetic Motor Oil became the first synthetic motor oil in the world to meet American Petroleum Institute service requirements. Since then, we have never stopped pushing ourselves to develop more-advanced formulations. The result? We continue to produce the best motor oils on the market.

Stop in and try the 5W-50 “Corvette” oil and discover the performance improvement! Or really the one oil which lets the engine operate to it’s potential!
