Yeh, poor old 540 Rat.

Going back in History a handful of years ago, he had a SR lifter fail with extremely low miles on his street car.

He went bezerk...lost his mind....and turned into a Dr Frankenstien and started testing motor oils.

I was there (online) to watch this happen real time.

He may have some good info there, but many pro's don't think so.

All the above is true and fact.

Do the oil chemists know better or does he ?

No way for us to know.

Just asking ^^^^ - Did'nt you already post that about the guy going nuts about his issue. If not someone else said the samething about his issues and what he did. Just asking because I heard this before exactly.

I would like to pass this story on to 2 people that I know and see what their reply is. If they say anything at all I will post it.

I have no idea about any of that, but it certainly is more interesting than the typical oil brand advice based on someone liking the colors on the bottle of their favorite oil.

Probably someone else as he did go bezerk in frt of a few large audiences. Don't remember discussion about him here, with me involved anyway.

I guess oil does this to some people. Look what happened to Borgie. LOL.

Anyhow, good or bad testing, I give 540Rat credit for taking on such a large undertaking.
