According to the links above, GTX has .12% of zinc. Just about right!

You know, if you send your oil to one of those oil testing companies, zinc is one of the things that should be listed on the results.

Thanks for that STP up-date, I'm feeling all better again!

Use Brad Penn Racing Oil. It is the old Kendall product. They bought the refinery. It's about 40% less ash than Rotella and is the right formula for racing and flat tappet. So, why compromise with an oil that was designed for low revving diesels. You want Chinese food that tastes like pizza? Why not just get pizza?
