But don't forget that the pump is positive displacement, which means it's output goes up with rpm. That means roughly 10 times as much oil at 8000 rpm as at 800 rpm. Less of course whatever goes thr

I knew that they lowered the standards for levels of zinc in motor oil years ago, not long after catalytic converters came on the scene. Comparing the numbers on Valvoline's web site to the venerabl

Bad idea IMO, the bolts with the nubs do not communicate with the oil gallery. Use one of the oil gallery plugs instead. Randall == unsubscribe/change address requests to majordomo@autox.team.net
