Glad to be of help, Enzo. I use synthetic but it is $10 a qt. I
also use synthetic oil in my engine with a 16 oz. can of Hughs oil additive
as I run a solid lifter flat-tappet cam. I also had my engine
bearings CT-2 coated as an insurance policy in case I lose oil pressure.
Plus a Dvorak one-way screen and crank scraper instead of a windage tray.
Dan swears that if you throw a rod, it will not puncture the oil pan and leave
oil all over a race track. That one-way screen is strong. The crank
scraper has to be fitted by a pro engine builder or someone with a lot of
patience. You have to keep putting it on, marking what you want to remove
with a marker and fit it on again. When you have .010 clearance around the
whole crank scraper you are done.
When I change oil in my car I'm going to put Slick
50 or some other additive to it. You can run a car for at least 20 miles
with no oil at all in your engine. Cheap insurance and you only have to do
it once for the life of your engine.
Don't be afraid of the trans-go. I would bet
some of the people bad-mouthing would have a different opinion of the trans-go
kit if I could take them for a ride in my car. I wouldn't be in the least
surprised if one of them went for a ride with me and said, "That trans shifts
better than mine does". Let them eat crow, my friend. Trans-go has a
hotline so if someone is putting one of their kits in your trans and has any
trouble, all they have to do is call the hotline for help.
