[Meech]

New member here
Im looking to buy a synthetic 0-40 for my car that is occasionly road raced. Because I do frequent changes, Id like a 55 gallon drum:

Link to Ebay buy it now
Has anyone ever heard of this oil? Everyone please chime in, I will be using this as an affordable alternative to other synthetic oils.

Thanks
Meech

Don't think it's for cars.

You can get big volumes of just about any oil you want. What kind of car is it?

2006 300C SRT8
1991 Eagle Talon TSI AWD

That's not a real good price, either.

Yeah its probably SJ or SG rated, which means it does not have the right ad pack for your car which needs a SL or higher rating.

Since you do frequent changes, why use a full synthetic?
That's the main thing about synth oil in most street cars.

Doesn't the SRT8 use Mobil 1 0w-40?

Yes it does, but I cant get it in a 55 gallon drum.

Wouldn't that be $16.82 a GALLON?

Ha! That's what I meant to type. Ok $4.21/qt + shipping.

Don't let Arco see this oil or he will BIN and will be SOL.

That's not a good price at all really. I wonder who makes that oil....? 0-40 pretty unique. I bet it's Exxon.

While I can't say too much for their 4 stroke oil, Polaris's specific additives in their 2s oil are added/blended by Lubrication Technologies (Lube Tech). IIRC, they get their bulk oil from Chevron??? and have it blended/modified to their specs by Lube Tech. I can't see why the 4s oil would be any different..

No MSDS and no ratings on the oil plus a high purchase price makes this a no go. You could probably get something rated for use in your vehicle from a company you know for much less money anyway.
