[Mgs] [Mgb-v8] Kendall Oil

[J. F. Juhas]

FWIW, I recall reading, I think in one of Carrol Smith's books, that the 
prohibition on copper use in aero and automotive applications is that 
the soft copper moves with pressure and vibration, and thereafter work 
hardens and then cracks.  Although his book didn't explain this, the 
copper alloys that seem to be the stuff of some non-corroding brake 
lines appear to be designed to prevent this work hardening characteristic.

Not that any of this has to do with Kendall Oil....
