Brad Penn 20/50 in a 428CJ OK???

[fdjake]

I've got a new case of it on the floor of my garage for my 85 911...Any harm using it for the summer in my 3700 mile 428 Cobra Jet with Dove aluminum heads?

My car is an 2006 ERA 427 with remote oil cooler

[Fordzilla]

I run it in my 521 stroker. That or Valvoline VR1 in 20-50. I also throw in 4 oz of Lucas Oil Assembly lube.

[Great Asp]

I run it in my 496 FE

10/30 or 10/40 for a street motor

fdjake The oil is fine. Just make sure you let the motor warm up the coolant and oil before going down the road. Try and avoid any long idling of the motor. Use a lucas oil suppliment and pour this in when motor oil is warm and motor running. Over fill the motor 1 quart for those fun minutes in the turns. Rick L.

There is no doubt in my mind that if there were a 30W-60 oil available many Cobra owners would just have to use it. No doubt with a pint of STP added.

Remember, thicker is not always better and too much can be disastrous.

Hey Rick !

" Try and avoid any long idling of the motor. Use a lucas oil suppliment and pour this in when motor oil is warm and motor running"

Can you explain why ?

[DAVID GAGNARD]

Just make sure you let the motor warm up the coolant and oil before going down the road.

This should be standard operating procedure for any high performance engine as well as your daily driver!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Of course. But I meant the,...."Use a lucas oil supplement and pour this in when motor oil is warm and motor running".

I've never used a supplement.

The ony time I used a supplement was on my high (as in 300,000+ miles) mileage company car.....not even sure it did any good,I'd put a bottle of STP in with the oil change.....other than that, never used a supplement either......

I put the 4 oz size of Lucas Oil assembly lube in at every oil change. It not only makes the oil clingy for protection at start up but has a Zinc additive.
