AutoZone, Mobil 1 Racing 0W-30

$2 a quart…

Warning, this is racing oil, major additives…

About four times a mid SAPS oil…

If you have an classic car without a catalytic converter,
and want to boost your oil additive level,
adding half a quart may be the way to go…

Mobil 1 Racing Full Synthetic 0W-30 Motor Oil 1 Quart

Just got 2 cases total of 12 qts. Very old oil looks bad the boxes are beat to shxx and 1 case is leaking. I will be return them.

I ordered 12 quarts the first time, 11 arrived without any problem - one was leaking…
I unscrewed the cap: it was a factory bottling defect (they twisted the white seal).
Now that I know they’ll actually arrive,
I tried to order 12 more……
But they only let me order 6 😔😔
I added 6 to my cart, then ordered a few other little things to get it up to the $35 free shipping threshold.
I’m going to use it as an “oil additive” in my 2005 6.0 Powerstroke with the HEUI injectors.
 
I ordered 12 and had to pay the $4.99 shipping. I don't mind I don't have a use for 18 of them to get free shipping. Will be blending it with some 15w40 Rotella T5 I got from some $2/qt close out to make a semi decent $2/qt 10w30 oil for my beaters. The diesel detergent and the racing antiwear should balance out quite well.

For those of you searching for a majority PAO (cheap) motor oil, this could be the ticket. If I am interpreting the Mobil 1 Racing 0W30 safety data sheet correctly, it is 50 - 75% PAO. Also, 1800 ppm both phosphorus and zinc, according to another Mobil 1 source. Definitely well fortified!

I received 6 quarts on my doorstep in like new condition. I will be using mine in an air cooled 6500 kw Honda generator. Also, a couple of vehicles with 5 1/2 qt oil capacity, whereby a 5 qt 5W30 jug isn’t enough.
 
I would not be running this oil in a daily driver as it is not designed for it. Mobil spec sheets show no API certs for it either and only recommend it for weekend track use only.
