The new formulation of Rotella T 15W-40 that meets the CJ-4 spec contains 1210 ppm zinc, the max allowed for CJ-4. If I recall correctly, it used to be about 1400. 1210 is plenty.

It is my understanding the companies like Crane and Comp Cams have changed hardening processes in respoonse to lower phospated ash/zddp.
