[T3] Vintage oil

[Daniel K. Du Vall]

How many have really experienced the lack of ZDDP issues lately? 
They are ever upgrading formulas with other types of protectants for flat tappet cams and other surfaces that need that sort of protection.
On that I believe allot of cam manufactures have improved their design with this lack of ZDDP in mind.

Just a thought but I am sure there is someone out there who has an option otherwise.

Pretty cool video. My take away from it, is that the old (50 year old) oil would be good break in engine oil.

I hoard ALOT of stuff these days, as our favorite products leave the market
faster than ever before

the replacements are usually crap.  But how about motor oil?  after the ZDDP
fiasco of about 15 years ago

I often thought, I wish I had hoarded up motor oil from the days our cars
were new.

 

well...  Lets see what might have happened if I had...
