Got an S&S crate motor for the Harley and the Indy put in some Amsoil 20W50 V-twin.

went down the rabbit hole looking at this and other Amsoil products and saw they make a High ZDDP oil called Amzoil Z-Rod, synthetic and specified for flat tappet engines.

Anyone here have any experience running it in our engines??

Kind of expensive, But for what the crate motor cost, its a small price.

It is expensive but you get what you pay for. I run it in my 914 and I am very happy with it. If you’re not sold on the brand Amsoil, Check out the you tube videos done by Farm Project where he compares it to all the others. It will make a believer of most people.
