I think things can be overblown sometimes, HOWEVER,in this case I believe there is some merit to the ZDDP issue. When I had my 67 mustang rebuilt, I went with a few upgrades inlcuding a hotter cam. During break in several cam lobes wiped out. I'm talking about the initial break-in- 20 minute run at 2000 rpm, there are variances but you get the jest. This is from an extremely reputable/experienced builder. Back then,this was the 3rd time it had happened to him in that year (2007). He told me he used Castrol 30 wt for most if not all initail runs, and has for years. Would a high ZDDP oil have helped, I dunno, my understanding is that it is heat activated, my cam wiped out in under 10 minutes, so go figure. But I'm not chancing it, I run only VR-1 racing oil in it, I may switch to M1 5W-40 diesel in the future.
