Re: [Mgs] ZDDP

["Eugene Balinski" <eugeneb@nni.com>]

Valvoline VR-1 racing oil in  20W50 supposedly has the ZDDP
required.  I get mine at my local NAPA.  

Be aware - there is a track and a road version.  You want
the road version. Meets all of other automotive
requirements for additives and detergents, etc
