NICK: No problems showed up in this sample of virgin 50W Kendall GT-1 oil. The anti-wear additives it uses are molybdenum, boron, phosphorus and zinc. Calcium and magnesium are detergent/dispersant type additives. Titanium is also an additive, though we aren’t quite clear what it's suppose to do. The viscosity was normal and no water, insolubles or excess metals showed up. This is serviceable oil from our tests and
should do well for you.

What would this be used in. Boss is building a 406 sbc for dirt track i have plans of being a five hundred dollar trunk lid sponcor, along with providing needed lubes and some parts.

Yeah, that's not instilling confidence in their abilities when they say something like that.

They don't know wwhat titanium is for? It's supposed to be an anti wear additive.
