going to drain the break in oil out of the motor, I’m gonna stick with 20w50 but what brand oils are you guys running on your rollers? I’ve always had flat tappers with brad penn

The oil I used is about 22.00 a quart.
WTF?
Do you pay 5 bucks a roll for toilet paper?

Clearances are .025 main and rods.
With 20/50 it’s 40 hot idle and 75 wot so I just figure that seems good so I’ll stay with the 20/50.
Plus I use it in the other car
That sounds ok but I suspect your clearances are .0025
Yes, missed a zero! Lol
I heard really good things about LAT oils, my machine shop QMP racing told me about it.
True, when I heard what it did for Shilos on the dyno had me sold, with the leak he has in his block, water in the oil the engine still never got over heated doing pulls, and they make it for transmissions too. When I'm to that point, and since they are local I'll go down and buy both their trans fluid and break in oil, then their synthetic. $20 per quart is up their but hey why not.
I agree. You are making a spend now, save later decision. A quality oil can save your bacon and make power too.
I was getting 70-80 runs on a set of valve springs and switching to Torco I could get 125 or so. That's something overlooked.
Somebody clue me in. Way back with oil and solid rollers it was don't idle it for long or you might burn a roller. Splash oiling. Still work like that? Standard isky rollers.
Cool. Some brain cells say Van Cleve ran Fords.
