[DeTomaso] Oil brand with ZDDT?

[Pantdino]

Without knowing the ppm content of ZDDP (not T) in the Eastwood stuff it's hard to know what the correct amount is.
According to the data Jack provided in the recent newsletter EOS has 6000 ppm.
Most SM rated gas engine oils have about 800 or more and if target is about 1200 you have to add about 400ppm per quart.
So one 16oz bottle of EOM should treat about 15 qts of oil for this gain and costs about $25.  
If you want higher ZDDP you'll have to add more.

Without a ppm number for the Eastwood stuff it's impossible to know if its a better deal or not.  Probably about the same--  $30 for 15 qts.

According to the printout I have from bobistheoilguy.com from Dec 2009 Rotella T Synthetic CJ4 SM has about 1200ppm, which I think is enough.

For the Pantera I use a SL rated 15W-40 oil similar to Delo I stocked up on before SL went off the shelves.

Use the oil of your choice and add ZDDT yourself

 Kendall GT1 20/50 with added Zinc, but none of the chains in San Diego carry
 this anymore (I've tried Pep Boys, Auto Zone, O'Reilly's ./ Kragen, Carquest
 and Napa - nada).
 Shell Rotella does not specifically list ZDDT on the label. After losing a
 cam lobe on break-in last year I'm not putting anything in unless I know it
 has ZDDT.
 Pep Boys sells a Zinc additive called Hyper Lube, but does anyone know of a
 brand which has Zinc? Wasn't there one Valveoline product with the stuff?

 Thank You,
