Hi Guys,
I know this is a repeat, but I read through the other "oil" debate and could not derive the needed info I was looking for regarding best oil with highest ZDDP for flat tappet. I got a rebuilt 77' ford 351w (RR) that I have just broken in 20 hours. I also run a FWC system too. I plan to change the oil this week. After learning about the ZDDP requirement, I am not sure what oil to buy. little help please. What is the best oil, weight, and filter for my motor. ZZ... |

Oil choices:
Valvoline Racing VR1 20w50 Shell Rotella straight weight- either 30w or 40w Mobil1 15w50 Good filters: Wix (51515) Napa (1515) Motorcraft (FL1A) Purolators are ok as well. Mobil1 filters are great, but pricey. Avoid Fram. |
