Ron=2C=20

While it hasn't happened to me=2C
I think I remember hearing about a friend of my father's neighbor's
cousin's uncle's son-in-law's buddy's nephew might have ruined a camshaft.

Just sayin'...

ps. While I remember walking through the Kendall Center at the Glen as a ki=
d
many years ago and being blown away by what was in there=2C
 Kendall oil is NOT the same stuff as it used to be. Not even being made at=
 the place.
Conoco/Philips owns the brand name.
Kendall GT-1 20-50 has boosted levels of ZDDP.

Brad Penn oil is made at the old Kendall Factory.

Bugeyeracer finally resto'ed!
Thanks to Frank C.!
