Valve Train Lubricant - I Picked Up 20 HP!
Since it was Thanksgiving, and I had a little of my "secret ingredient" for the bird left over, I used it instead of the Brad Penn that I've always had in the ol' girl. Yessirreee, I picked up 20 HP on the chassis dyno and the bird smells wonderful.

I'm waiting for RodKnock to chime in on the health benefits of my secret ingredient/horsepower booster. Brent should use it on Lippy's engine dyno -- I bet it would boost it up over 700HP.

We went through this -- my Yokos are good for ten years at a minimum.  Even the USDOT is moving to the international rule of ten years (absent abuse, tread wear, leaving them out in the backyard sun, and the like). IIRC, I even posted authoritative cites for you and you ended up agreeing with me. |

If your exhaust smells like pork rinds, you probably have a leaky valve.

Danr, bet you ran right out to buy some, in hopes of doubling your HP output.
