I just invested "mucho dinero" in a new dry-sumped Type 4 engine(2056 cc) and want to protect it with the best oil. Any suggestions from my experienced racing friends?

royal purple HPS
they make a street oil without zinc that you don't want the HPS has zinc... they also make a racing oil with zinc that is a lot more money but I've had great luck with the HPS I would probably go redline otherwise.... although I get a much better price on the royal purple. I'm using redline in the tranny now though oil changes every event are a must... my system is 19qts, although I don't get the coolers emptied every oil change. I'm doing tranny filter flushes every event and tranny oil every 3-4 events. brant |
