Thread: Oil additives

Tweet

One of the better oils today for non roller cams is harley davidson oil. You can also buy Valvoline racing (off road oil), but it is low or has no detergents.

compared to most regular motor oils doesnt look like my castrol 20-50 did to bad 1422 ppm compared to most

The charts listed are from May of this year....EPA and the fed's have reduced all the numbers since....be wary of what you read into those. Aftermarket developers are going forward with new additives. Research and watch the numbers as they come out. You'll be able to run the flat lobe style cams with the right stuff.

I bought an '89 S15 Jimmy with 135,000 miles on it. It began to lose oil pressure at an idle, the check gauges light came on and it would die. I put some Wal-Mart Super Tech oil treatment in it. It never did that again. Needless to say, I continued to use it in that vehicle and others. It also helped a '90 GMC C15 I have at present. Good stuff.

f*** the epa that about sums it up.
