Current knowlege says 2000-2400 max ppm FOR CAM BREAK-IN ONLY. Then use 
1000-1200 ppm, both for flat tappet cams. Roller cams can use far less. And 
since oils have been changing ZDDP levels every 6 months -always lower- believe 
nothing printed that's dated more than 3 months ago as to what's inside 
various oils. Even the manufacturers web sites are not always up to date. Good 
luck- J Deryke
