Flat tappets ZDDP concerns

[Excaliber]

My engine doesn't like synthetic so that's out. Brad Penn is good stuff but not readily and easily available.

Solution for my flat tappet old school side oiler? Shell Rotella 15-40 and a can (or two because I use 12 quarts of oil per change) of STP. Rotella has the ZDDP as does STP, together it apparently is "enough". Coming up on 10,000 HARD miles with my flat tappet and looking good!

I get my Brad Penn from the Oil Warehouse, good price.

the price of the oil isn't bad but 21.00 shipping hurts.
My company, Origin corporation, is in the process of a Brad Penn distributorship. Our location is in PA so the availability will be good. once things are sorted out i will make it known what pricing will be so others here at CC will be able to buy hassle free. we will be starting out with engine oils but would like to become a full line supplier eventually.

thanks, fred

Run whatever your favorite oil is and then add this:

Best of both worlds.
