I have a 64 AMC Rambler Classic 550 with a 287v8. I just bought it, it's motor was rebuilt with a mild Cam. What kind of oil and weight should I use?
So you have your Beetle running and driving now?In my classic Beetle I use Valvoline High Zinc racing oil 20W-50. I’d probably go with a high zinc oil in a classic. Maybe 10W-30 or 10W-40 or even the 20W-50.
Nothing special required. Pick a good 10W30. Like Quakerstate.I have a 64 AMC Rambler Classic 550 with a 287v8. I just bought it, it's motor was rebuilt with a mild Cam. What kind of oil and weight should I use?
I sure wish. Haha. That’s what we put in it at the school when it did run and drive.So you have your Beetle running and driving now?
I don't understand your point. Are you saying GTX today isn't as suitable now as it would have been in 1978?This ain't GTX API-SE from 1978.
