Okay I did a search on oils that people run and my search was less than helpful. I always get the same thing. Brad penn oil... I know that this is good oil and many run this but I would like to know what everyone runs.
So please state the engine your running and what oil you're running. Thanks, Thomas |

Interesting how many people are running "Penn's oil", (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) Sorry couldn't help myself.
On a serious note. I know a lot of people have noted that oil technology has changed a lot, even in recent years. I took a class at De Anza auto tech,(Circa 1987),taught by Dema Elgin,of Elgin cams fame. He told us DO NOT run Castrol GTX as it aerates far too much, and certainly do not run it in a turbo engine. He has a pretty impressive cam portfolio including Porsche so I've stuck with that advice.FWIW |
