Re: Hemmings motor oil



I'm not trying to say what is right or what is wrong. If you ask ten people about oil you might get ten different answers. This same thread went on for months on other sites. I was just stating what works for me. Cats have been in cars for close to 40 years. In the last few years they started reducing the zinc in some oils.

i used to use rotella 15/40 but they took the zinc out of it a while back so i have been using a additive till autozone started carrying this new kendall ,,they said they got it due to all the motorheads needing a high zinc oil for our older car,,    i am glad to not have to mess with additives anymore/kendall was my choice oil back in the good old days and now 30 years later i am back using it,,

I have been using diesel 15/40 in my older cars. My MG has solid lifters too. Diesel oil contains Zinc tom withstand the my duramax has over 500,000 miles without a rebuild. There was a lot of discussion about different oils several months ago on the MG web site. Many were using the 15/40. MG�s cams don�t like the newer oils.

A comment re: all o these Zinc enhanced oils; none seem to want to tell us �how much� Zinc/ZDDP % is in each quart; this is vital.  You will need the correct levels to prevent your cam from going flat and you need to make doubly sure if you are aggressive/racing and turn 6000rpm + with your motor.

That's what I use in my 65 383 Coronet 500. VR-1 Racing also has zinc in it.
