Engine Oil Discussion

Carry on. With modern oils that have little to no zinc and phosphous, the cam will fail prematurely eveven with the low spring rates of the slant six. Yes the proper oil.formulation for vintage engines is going come at a bit of a cost, but then what is the cost of an engine overhaul?

Damn, I’ll say it once more. ALL ENGINE OILS MUST HAVE ZDDP OR THEY ARE NOT ENGINE OILS.

There is no such thing as an engine oil without ZDDP. And ZDDP isn’t just for cam lobes.

These stupid myths need to be stopped.
