Otherwise, I think it's a complete waste of time, money, and space.

I think you're way off base on this Bob...

A lot of Cobras sit a long time between starts. Mine sits 6 months+. Any amount of oil that was clinging to the rotating assembly, bearings included, have long since disappeared. I just hate to dry-start a $20K plus engine. 30psi on a cold start is always a good thing...

Maybe. But I'm a scientist. I like to see proof. So far, all I'v ever seen is advertising. If it sits for 6 months, then you're only starting it like that once or twice a year. How many years before you see any actual wear from that?
IMO, you're better off using a good 0W-40 oil and not worrying about it.

OTOH, you have to do what helps you sleep at night. And if installing this does that, then I say go for it.

But... I've a degree in automotive technologies and slept in a Holiday Inn Express. It makes me AND my engine happier.
