RP-41 for a reff point. This is what I use now

Looks the same junk to me. Less no extra IRON lol

NAPA can get it for you even if they do not stock it. Should not be an issue. http://www.valvoline.com/products/VR-1%20Racing%20Motor%20Oil.pdf

Still not sure what your oil budget is? If it's like most of us lol That's a pretty mild deal so no need for an expensive oil IMHO I would go to NAPA or anyone that cat get you VR-1 in a straight 30W. I'd guess you drive few miles so I'd dump it ever 6 to 9 months. You could spend the $'s and...

Got your PM You need to tell me ore details Is the cam broke in or is it all new? Compression? approx HP or a rear time slip? Budget? Does it have to pass State or Fed emissions? I do not like HD oils in general for race applications

OK Cool Hey I'd like to see that VOA. Can you email it to me when it's done? [email protected] cut and paste it the 4th character is a ZERO BTW Last I looked (testing of course) for a shelf oil the VR-1 was the best bang for the BUCK. Kicking it up a notch, the Schaeffer's Micro Moly was...

Be honest. If you are a racer you know that very few test oil. What do you race? Have you used the oil I'm talking about? Have you read any other independent oil tests on BP like I shared with you? Most use it because so and so said it was good. In this case the Green deal and link to obsolete...

Other side of bottle says API SJ/CF Are you speaking from 1st hand experience??? Or just repeating what you read or hear?? If you have used it lets see a bottle pick with the seal and a VOA test with what you say. Everything I showed here was based on facts from my 1st hand experience. I'd...

BrewcityR I will post it in the UOA area. I'm at 7500 and oil life meter says 70% left hmmm. I dumped my factory fill at 4800 or so. It's one here under UOA. I think I'll take this fill to 7000 delta. With the P&G and FAS the run time is small for the miles lol At the time I did my 1st change I...

what happed to all the BP lovers lol

They gave me a box of it to try in my race car. I sent off a sample for a VOA and decided it was not going in my 1000hp eng. Racers are pretty uneducated about OIL, as a whole. That has been my observation over the years. They tend to just follow others. I think the decent marketing by BP and...

has anyone seen a UOA or VOA on here with a oil that had moly this high? 675ppm I'd love to see it Highest I have seen was 250 in some Schaffer's race oil.
