[DeTomaso] Oil Additives

I bought a ZDDP additive and used it for a couple of years... but then
someone highly knowledgeable (Dan Jones??)  posted a link on the Forum a few
years ago to a study that basically said that this protected your engine
less than a "normal" oil without zddp additive. 

I'm afraid I don't remember the details or the reasoning, but the conclusion
I took from the article was that these additives were not a good idea. I
stopped using it 3-4 years ago.

I am thinking of getting 10w40 oil for my Pantera and buying separately 
a ZDDP additive. This appears to cost less than oil with ZDDP already 
included... and it is available locally.

Has anyone tried this approach? and how well do you think it worked for you.

Thanks
Roydon
