Oil intended for diesels generally have lower rates of "anti foam" additive due to the generally lower RPM ranges of the engines. I would be wary of twisting 7000 RPM with oil designed for a max of 2500. The windage at double the RPMs, despite a windage tray must be substantial. Just saying.......

Delo 400 is designed for gasoline performance engines as well as diesel.
I will be switching on to Schaeffer 705 when I have done some miles in this car, I know of several people who race with Delo 400 in smaller engines, and have read good right ups from people in the US with speedway engines that swear by it.
