I have been using Royal Purple for the last 3 years in my engine and have no complaints. The oil temperatures are a bit lower (-20 to 30 deg f) than with petroleum based products and you may notice a slightly lower oil pressure reading. I am running a 460 with a Canton road race pan, dual filters, and a cooler.

Thumbs up Royal Purple

I run Royal Purple in All my Big turcks, also their trans, and rears. I also run it in my personal vehicles, also my Cobra. Won't use anything else. If you got questions contact you local Royal Purple Distributor, they'll be glad to answer any question you've got!
