[DeTomaso] ZDDP - is this stuff any good?

[Asa Jay Laughton]

A while back I tried to condense some of this information in the TPR Wiki:
http://www.teampanteraracing.com/index.php?option=com_wrapper&view=wrapper&Itemid=74

Do a search for "Engine Oil" and you should get the page with the 
information and links to references.  I'll admit it could use updating.

>> Dear Jim, Here is the link to the FAQ section of ZDDPlus HQ. I can't find the exact concentration, but they mention the percentage of zinc in solution is about three times higher than GM EOS, which used to be the most (?) common zinc additive. http://www.zddplus.com/index.htm#ZPlus_vs_GM_EOS_Dosing Warmest regards, Chuck Engles

> Dear Charlie,FWIW, that is what I use. I am in the process of converting to Mobile 1 20-50, which used to have ZDDP in it. However, that is no longer reliably true and I may be spiking it with a snort of ZDDPlus. I think it would be as good as the other similar products on the market.Warmest regards, Chuck Engles---- Charles McCall<charlesmccall at gmail.com>  wrote:>  Is this what we need for flat tappet engines?>>  http://www.zddpus.com/>>>>  Is there any data to suggest that this product is any better or worse than>  any other product?>>>>  (International shipping is only 10 bucks.)>>>>  Thanks!>>>>  Charles McCall>>  1985 DeTomaso Pantera GT5-S #9375>>  "Raising Pantera Awareness Across Europe">>  <http://www.poca.com/index.php/gallery/?g2_itemId=2323>>  http://www.poca.com/index.php/gallery/?g2_itemId=2323>>>>  _______________________________________________>>  Detomaso Forum Managed by POCA>>  Archive Search Engine Now Available at
