[Fot] isky oil recommendations

[Alexandre Camoletti]

Funny enough Isky's sheet does not mention Lucas Oil. Their classic 20/50 has 2300ppm ZDDP the racing oils 3'000 up to 5'000. I
 only use Lucas oils now, engine and box run significantly cooler. Had to remove the oil cooler on the hillclimb TR3 as I could not reach 90°C anymore!
Merry Christmas dear Foters!
Buon Natale Amici!

Greg,
That page is loaded with good advice. I too have had great success with VR1, but on my last new racing cam, the irreplaceable Larry Young 310,  I used Driven Break In oil, first. I use Driven cam paste and VR1 for everything else.

You only get one chance at life, make it a TRIUMPH.
