I was inquiring about the ZDDP parts per million.
They would not give out that info. I understand trade secrets and such but we should be told certain aspects that help us decide which products to purchase. |

Royal Purple went down hill as soon as it became more readily available.. I used it in my 160,000 mile 912E engine that provided no-fail service over 8 years.
The data you are looking for is easy to get, not even from them. BUT its not just ZDDP that matters, its the entire oil base stock and additive package. Some zinc is also more active than other and don't discount the moly, sulphur and phosphorous content either. We've learned this over 5 years of developing our own oil especially for the aircooled engine.. |

i looked for your oil jake at http://www.aircooledtechnology.com/store/. i did not see it there. Availibility? Price? I just released the fact that we had this product completed two weeks ago. It is now being used in our engines for both break in and street service as well as race applications. I plan on only selling it to the general public after we have at least a year or so of testimonial and comparatives from these customers and their engines to substantiate the claims. I also have a fleet of 14 test vehicles attaining the final used oil analysis from the latest formulations currently. We only need to finish one more product and build the website for it before going live, sometime in 2011.. I do have a handful of beta testers out there running it as well, in engines from 80-625HP. You can learn all about it on my forums. This post has been edited by Jake Raby: Aug 30 2010, 03:50 PM |

I am a bit confused, is this stuff (snake oil) real and your not using or planning to not use brad penn anymore, or is this some joke lable you made up? |
