Here's a chart on which Mobil lists the zinc and phosphorus quantaties of each of their synthetic oils.

Take a look at the Mobil 1 15w-50

Comments???

 

their racing oil is higher.

but the red line #'s are up around 2400 ppm

 

Any update on this? I was looking foward to hearing what they had to say.

 

If you need some in a hurry, you can get some at your local store. All Valvoline now has 1300 ppm zink minimum. their VR-1, & off road oil has even more zink and phosphorous.
Add some extra Zink from a special supplier for new engines during breakin.
2000 to 3000 Zink (per quart), no more, or less, till engine is broke in good.

Do some searches on the big name CAM companies for more info. Failures and more failures, in recent years.

Gary, it's "Zinc" with a "c".
