Brad Penn?

[furyus 67]

It's been suggested by a couple of Mopar guys that I know that I should break in my engine with brad penn 10/30 and run brad penn 10/40. What do you guys with aggressive cams run? I'm going to running a 284/484 Mopar performance . I honestly have never heard of brad penn oil but but its been awhile since I've built something this old.

The Brad Penn oil is very popular and seems to be a good oil with a high zinc content. It's made in the former Kendall refinery.

I run it myself.

What cam are you running john? Also what weight?

 

[Big_John]

Stock cam. 10W30.

I run Brad Penn in straight 40 weight, I wouldn't use anything else.

Not joking but WallyWorlds 10-30.
I did my research.

AND.... if you change your oil every 3K, you can literally throw in used vegetable oil, a bottle of Lucas, and a bottle of dandruff shampoo and at 100k have everything still looking shiny and new.

You might want to add one of these too...available at AAP and other places.

I just read an article online about the newer oils and their lack of zinc and how bad it is for the older solid lifter motors. The bottom line was the EPA started to regulate zinc additives in oils back in the 90s and is slowly reduce since. The article stated that it (zinc)was causing premature catalytic converter failures. I also read an article stating that America's cattle industry creates more carbon monoxide and then all of the cars in the world. Task task who to believe? SMH... I don't know about you but I'd rather give up my burgers and steak and my Internal combustion engines!!​

should that be added to the Brad pen oil or is that an additive for a more common conventional oil?

That's pretty neat! To bad I've never had it on a track!

Don't add that to the Brad Penn. It has enough zinc in it.

I hate to sound like such a newb at 39 yrs old but everything I've owned and or built over the last 15 or so years has been a roller motor. I always use mobile 1 full synthetic or mobile 1 high mileage . Thanks for the guidance guys!!

Maybe he's there marketing spokes man.... Here's Brad Pitt folks speaking for Brad penn oil. When I do a movie shoot I always drink a quart of Brad penn oil before starting. The extra high zinc gives me my energy, and keeps all my areas lubricated....... LOL
