Whoa, M-Dog!  Did you miss your 6 o'clock bone last night?

	Adding ZDDP to today's oils for those who still have flat tappet cams in
their Cleve's is just like adding a lead substitute to today's gas for those
of us with non-hardened valve seats.  You should be happy these products
haven't been banned by the EPA (YET!).  At least this way, those slackers
without the budget for a rollerized and stellitized Russ Fulp engine can
consider open road racing.

You either need either some Puppy-Uppers or Doggy-Downers to chill out! HA!

Slackers,

  99% of you slackers ever go fast enough long enough to even need any
special oil let alone ZDDPBS. Racing rice burners in a straight line for 3
blocks doesn't count.

  What "YOU" need to do is get ONE of the TWO Pantera'S running that you
own. ;-]>

  WHAT Chris needs to do is get off the I-5 freeway or Aurora Ave on the 3
days a year its 90 in Seattle before 2 of his 3 fans fail. ;-]>

Okay my friend...are you saying slackers don't need a roller or fuel
injection? ;-]>
Pleeeeaze!

Send me 2 cases and one of those magic sticks to find water.

Where's the aliens?

Dear Dennis,


I am sure you're aware of benefits of ZDDP oil additive
despite the distractions of aero testing refinements and the higher order
mathematical permutations of fuel injection curves. For those of us that
still use flat tappet camshafts and lifters the ZDDP works much, much better

than third cooling fans. I need to buy a case of it.


Flat tappets for a few more years until
roller conversion, Chuck Engles
