yah, redline and amsoil are very good synthetic oils. Personally, i would go for redline
www.redlineoil.com
i believe there is an 800 number to call regarding where you can get their oils. The neat thing is that their change duration is like 12-15k miles although the oil filter should be changed every 5k.
If synthetic is not for you, go with Valvoline...reallly really really good stuff.
A friend of mine who does alot of machine cylinder headwork (literally his garage is full of machined, milled cylinder heads stacked to the ceiling - weird thing is he went to UCLA for his undergrad, dunno how he got into this) swears by it. Consistantly, cylinder heads he has worked on have had much less wear when the cars they came out of ran valvoline. A very noticable difference. I swear by it too. It really-really-really resists volitile burnoff. I believe the secret is in their additive package, not the base oil. Anyway, have fun under the car. Be careful and use jackstands; almost had a friend get squished under an E36 using only a jack....he missed gettin kilt' by...like...seconds.
