The mustang has CATS, so the extra zinc may pose a problem. I think they have a special oil for cars with CATS. What is a good break in protocol i.e. oil changes and rpms..speed, start stop,etc...to break in a new engine. The 5.0 is stock and I want it to run another 160K+ without any problems. The person who rebuilt the engine said it looked really good for the miles it had, hardly any wear. Probably could have got 250K+ more...
Thanks,

Got the Brad Penn in and the new Wix filter also lubed up all shackles, u joints, tie rods/ball joints, and chassis pivot points.... Took it for a drive. Next project is to possibly get a Holley Truck Avenger 470cfm instead of the current Edlebrock.1957 Willys CJ5 283 sbc
