I believe he meant to use the word "homogenzation" -- as in "homogenize" or "homogenate".

Can you furnish me with the month/year of these articles ? Auto Restorer is an excellent magazine and I'm especially interested in what their take is on this. Not sure what you mean by 'homologation'. I looked the word up and it has nothing to do with motor oil. I'm also hoping that one or more of the petroleum engineers in the audience will chime in on this discussion.

I doesn't take an imagination or an engineer to see the difference in a manufactured homologation of zinc in oil while being produced and pouring a "zinc liquid" into your crankcase waiting for it to mix and homologate with oil, as you idle your engine, and do its job; Or does it? If we have an engineer out there, who has researched this topic, should we ask him to come forward for the benefit of the club. Explaining the pros and cons..... I also remember Slick 50; A big money maker and a good quality oil.....thats all !?
