That's in all oil as a friction reducer. Conventional or Synthetic. Motor Oil or an Industrial Hydraulic oil.

Just say no to oil additives. If the oil needed them the oil manufacturer would have added them at blending.

I ran ZDDP additive in my 575sci with flat tappet cam. I used it with 15/40 rotella and never had a cam issue. Running 10psi boost I changed the oil a lot due to fuel dilusion and could not see spending money on synthetics or racing oil of any type. Oil pressure was always rock solid.
