That means it can be put into the LT1 (and any other newer GM tech engine calling for Dexos R and 40w).

This recommendation is simply to save money, but not necessarily in a bad way as the oil meets the specs and folks buying L87’s aren’t driving them on a racetrack (ie the reason to use Supercar as it may sheer down less bad versus FS).
The point is GM is just changing oils instead of actually fixing the engines.
