Best Oil for Camaro 396, Brand / Weight

So, I have a question... I'm reading that synthetic isn't highly thought of for this application, but that VR1 is... I don't believe that both comments have come from the same members but I did want to call this out and open a discussion on VR-1 being synthetic... thoughts?

I use the non-synthetic VR1.

I wasn't even aware VR-1 came as a full synthetic. When I have used it (10-30) it didn't even state on the label that it was a blend. I always assumed it was totally conventional. I would use a VR-1 10-30 blend but not a full synthetic.
