As others have said, 0w40 Supercar is what you want for the street and for non-1LE track use. Once the warranty is up, use whatever oil you wish. And whichever way you choose to go, I'd recommend sending samples to Blackstone-labs to confirm you're getting the result you want out of your oil, given your particular driving conditions and climate.

EDIT: The official GM communication from March 2018 that your son's mechanic friend was talking about is below, reference here: https://www.corvetteactioncenter.com...le.php?id=1389 which clearly mentions Camaro (with an asterisk that excludes 1LE trims I presume to avoid confusion with the 15w50 track use requirement) in the table. Although the document title states only Corvette there was no second document published specific to Camaro ... typical GM_Things(TM). A screenshot of the same webpage was posted on our forums back in 2019: https://www.camaro6.com/forums/showt...0#post10414750 .

Subsequent to this 2018 update, the part numbers and names of the 0w40 have changed from "ESP Formula" to "Supercar"
