It seems that a lot of modern oils have very little or any molybdenum any more as an additive. Notably Castrol Edge, Total Quartz 9000, Motul X-Cess, X-Lite, etc have none. Race oils seem to universally have a huge helping of it and Redline seems to be especially famous for a large dose of Moly for a street oil.
Is there a con to large amounts of moly in an engine that might hurt something? The only research I could find was that moly in some forms can attack copper and that might hurt some parts of some engines.
