[Fot] ZDDP break in time

[Kramer, Robert]

I don't believe ZDDP is just for break in, rather the lack of it at break in
hastens the damage that occurs to flat tappet cams on engines run without it.
I use Valvoline 20W50 VR1 racing oil, the kind they sell at all the major
parts stores and it has ZDDP in it.

Hi All,
 How long do you have to run oil with ZDDP in our engines when they are newly
rebuilt??? I have 500 miles on a new motor and ready to do the first oil
change. Should I put oil with ZDDP back in? If so does anyone know of a brand
that sells 10W40 or 5W30 oil with ZDDP? All I can find is strait 50W or
20W50.
Way to heavy for street car.
Thanks
Andy
