Mobil1 0W40 used to be my go-to choice, problem is they changed the formation in May of 2022 and dropped the phosphorus to 900 and the zinc to 1000. https://www.mobil.com/lubricants/-/media/project/wep/mobil/mobil-row-us-1/pdf/emsga-mobil1productguide-v2-9-1-22.pdf Those numbers aren't too...

This is a thread about engine oil, there's no room for proof or evidence here. :rofl: Seriously though, I don't know about zinc (ZDDP) costing power, we're talking about 800 ppm probably being too low for a flat tappet engine and 2200 ppm probably being too high to run consistently. That's...

You guys should subscribe to Lake Speed's YouTube channel. He's done all kinds of videos on diesel oils, ZDDP, etc. The guy is legit and knows the science. https://www.youtube.com/@themotoroilgeek

Safety cages, side impact beams, and electronic accessories. That's where all the weight is coming from. I heard a stat some time about 10 - 15 years ago that the average new car contains 21 miles of wire. And that's an old number... I'd bet the average car in 2008 have even more. I think my...

I thought about doing an electric conversion to the Falcon. I'm not too concerned about performance in that car and I don't mind cutting up a Ford. The problem is it's just not cost effective right now. I'm sure in a few years once the technology evolves this type of thing will be a viable...
