But the real question, David, is - do you keep the top down?? ;-)

The ZDDP
conversations on this list have probably exceeded other illustrious
topics
such as towing with driveline attached or not or even pros/cons on
weber
carbs. The primary solution is the one Jack mentions - using Valvoline
VR1
racing oil. The problem, at least for me, is that 20W50 is not practical
for
this time of year as I switch to 10W40 in the winter due to cold weather.
And
it looks like it is only available as 20W50. Currently it is 10 F outside.
Yes, I drive my "fair weather" daily driver 64B when it is this cold out if it
is dry weather. Single digit or below zero temps or snow will keep the B
parked while I use my Land Rover - like today as we have about 3" of fresh
snow in an ongoing storm with 6-10" predicted by tomorrow.

I'm
surprised that no one has mentioned that Valvolene racing oil contains
ZDDP. 
It comes in 20W50, just right for our cars.

They used to advertise it in
large letters on the front label, but it now it
is a fine print notice on the
back. You either have to have a sharp
salesperson, or spend time reading the
fine print.

Jack, who won't leave home without it.
