What Race Oil do you trust?

Wade_Owens · 10-22-2012, 04:48 PM

Asking about Stocker Engines in this thread;
I have used Royal Purple 5w20 for the last few years. After being told time and again there are faster, better protecting oils out there, I'm now ready to look at some other avenues. What good experiences have you had with which companies?
I did try Redline 0-5 once also, it was faster than RP, but my particular engine smoked with it.
I know a bunch of guys preach the Joe Gibbs, but, I also know some of them supposedly said that their lifters wont pump up with it. True or False?

What's your opinions?

I've never had any oil related issues using Joe Gibbs XP0.
It is a few hundreths quicker for me than Mobil1 0W20.
Not sure if that is worth the extra cost$$$???

Have mostly used Mobil 1 and Lucas 10-30 in LT1 and LS cars We tried RP in the LT1 but would not keep the lifters pumped up. We have since went with solids (thanks nhra) 2 questions...do I need a additive with Mobil 1 or Lucas? since both cars have roller cams?...somebody mentioned Mobil 1 5-20 high mileage. Is this OK for all the time oil?
What about a safe heads up go fast oil?

I do not think there is a "Safe" Superlight heads up Oil!

I am always worried with the Superlight stuff and can not wait
to get it to the finish and shut the engine down!
