Hello
I am looking for a High additive package OFF THE SHELF affordable oil.
Currently I am running Mobil 1 15w50 "racing oil" and I havent had any issues......but its tooo darn thick and I dont run 300f oil. I fell Im giving up power and creating too much friction with that syrup oil. I generally make runs at 160---170F water temp....its quarter mile shots with plenty of cool off time.
I would like a 5-30 high zinc oil.....
I do see that Rotella t6 5w40 and that looks really good to me...../good package and reasonbly priced /off the shelf.
Engine is a 427 Ford windsor style block...(DART Block) Eagle steel rotating assembly. clearances are 27-30 thousanths on rods and mains.
I am running a Solid roller camshaft with pressure fed lifters. I Run a Stock style oil pump (no high volume) its a mild build....12 to 1.....686hp on the dyno.
My Goals ARE: further reduce internal friction.
Maintain a High protection additive package
Keep costs realistic......with an off the shelf oil.
I dont run the car alot.......but when I do, I push it Hard.....shifting 7600rpm.
thanks for your time.....and thoughts. Ill Let this cook a little.
