Good oil. High zinc content Smooth and consistent oil pressure in my 427. Highly recommended for older and spirited engines.

This is probably the highest quality of oil that you can get. Some of the best lubricant you’ll fine. I love running this in my race engines. I feel it helps the performance of my engines and makes them last a lot longer than other oils.

I use this in my Porsche 911. It works well. I used same brand and type the past 15 years in the car and have had no issues. I go through 80 quarts a year and currently this was the best price.

Really good quality oil for my truck. Everyone i know recommends it.

This is the only oil we run in our Harley Davidson motorcycles. They have less valve train, lifter noise on this oil than anything else we’ve tried.

The media could not be loaded. Zillions of choices for motor oil out there. In my Ford F150 it’s the Motorcraft stuff. Air cooled motorcycle gets Motul 10w60.For early engines that *Do Not* have a catalytic converter, and most especially if the valve train has solid lifters, for me it’s Valvoline VR1. The high zinc level is crucial for engines like these. Considering that the cost of a proper engine overhaul on the Pierce-Arrow is right at $40-grand, there’s no reason to cheap-out on engine oil.Amazon’s price is very reasonable for a 5-quart container, and about half the price of buying individual quarts. Buy several and keep it in hand, especially for ancient engines like in the 1912 Buick that keep the roads nicely oiled, a couple quarts are always at the ready.I don’t run extended oil intervals, of course. Typically change oil once a year. I send a sample to Blackstone Labs to have it analyzed, and that’s how I know the oil is doing its job.The video is of the Buick’s four cylinder T-head engine; fun to watch.
