I will be using Shell Rotellla, if a 22 to 1 compression ratio motor uses it, seems good to me.

Rick Lake swears by an accusump. I think he's told me that it has saved his engine at least once, maybe twice. And that's in addition to the pre-pressurizing before you start it up after it has sat for a while. On the first start up of the spring, after my engine has been sitting still for 5 months, I crank the engine with the ignition disabled until I get a little pressure, and then I fire it up. My thinking is that if I only do that once a year I doubt it's adding much wear, and I'll consider myself really, really lucky if I get to do it 25 times.
