Not Ranked

I just received the analysis on the Redline 5W-30 I sent to Blaskstone labs -

Molybdenum - 705 PPM (0.07%)
Zinc - 1199 PPM (0.12%)
Phosphorous - 1079 PPM (0.11%)

Blackstone also identified the oil as Redline 5W-30. A nice call!

Last year I sent them a sample of the Mobil1 5W-30 I was running -

Molybdenum - 81 PPM (0.008%)
Zinc - 790 PPM (0.08%)
Phosphorous - 656 PPM (0.07%)

Redline also sells a ZDDP additive for those who want even more. A least for now I'm using Redline.
