Default Info on Gulf Western Oil (Aus. company) ?

Anybody know anything about Gulf Western Oil?


They say they "are the largest Aussie owned manufacturer of lubricants in Australia with OEM approved formulations and ISO 9001 Quality endorsed."

and...

"We offer an extensive range of products which include diesel engine oils, petrol engine oils, hydraulic oils, gear lubricants, transmission fluids, aerosols, coolants and cleaners."


Their name came up while looking for engine oil that is high in zinc content for solid lifter engines. Their oil is not expensive, and they have apparently been around for quite a while.
They make a 20W-50 mineral oil (named XMP) that is SG/CD rated which I believe makes it a high ZDDP oil.

Any comments? I had never heard of them, but that sure doesn't mean they are not OK.....

Cheers,
Glen

Oh, if anybody has info about other oils that are high in ZDDP, please spill
