Default ls3 Coolant what is good?

I saw the evans antifreeze video that old Jay leno did. Is anyone using this? It is pricey but is a lifetime antifreeze. Is that until I die or I blow it up?
Thanks

Unless you have a cooling problem or are racing -- don't bother with the Evans. There's no need.

Run DISTILLED water and a bit of anti freeze that's GM approved for aluminum. That and a bottle of Redline Water Wetter. All you'll ever need.

Most people will agree to avoid the orange stuff. The GM approved green stuff is commonly accepted as safe. Above all else, use distilled water. Never use tap water.
