Amsoil SS has 1,300 an is 100% LSPI certified. Boron and Magnesium in it's place and who knows behind the VOA scene we can't see.
Plus SN+ oil is no grand spec, compared to Mercedes Benz and VW specs it is SO meagerly.
You missed it. A street driven oil needs more detergent then 250PPM with a TBN of 2.
The Driven XP oils with just 250 ppm Ca are not advertised for street use. They are strictly race oils. Short chained, secondary ZDDP. Loads of tri-nuclear / organomoly blend. No VIIs. A friend of mine runs this oil in his MASS Street Stock car. He only changes the oil once a year at the beginning of the season. After each race weekend, he changes the cheap Fram filter and tops off 0.5 quart to refresh the oil.

I don't have specifics on the DI20, DI30, DI40, and DI60 oils but know they are formulated with a Ca/Mg blend like other D1G2 and SN Plus oils.
Well the LS30 has quite a bit of Calcium it would be interesting to see if it prevented LPSI.
