Oil discussion compilation thread
 
For whatever reason, it is difficult to search our forums for 3 letter words such as oil, and UOA (used oil analysis), so it was asked that someone create a thread compiling decent oil information for our cars.

Below is a collection of links found on msf (and now other reputable sites) that are oil related.

There is also a link to what is thought as the most informative oil website that I know of, "Bob is the Oil Guy .com".

Thank fucking fuck Rob!

I know it's not on MSF, but this link has some really great analysis of motor oil.

FerrariChat.com - FAQ: Motor Oil Articles by Dr. Ali E. Haas (AEHaas)

The guy has basically tested everything out there, and even uses math to prove his points! *gasp*

The site below has the same info as nindoja, but has some of Dr. Haas's credentials included in the beginning.

Adding to OP. Thanks very much for the contribution!

The Dr's credentials definitely add credibility to the thread.

I plan on switching to this my next oil change. Penn Grade 1 High Performance Oil

I'm still debating on 10w-40 or 10w-30.

Brad Penn "Green Oil" is supposed to be some of the best stuff around. I'll give a further review vs. Pennzoil Platinum in a separate thread you can link here after the switch.

I know you are familiar with the Evo world, and Forced Performance highly recommends Brad Penn.

Check out that Zddp in modern oil thread (started by Lex) above.

There is a link to a test of oils performed by Forced Performance (white paper Ziggo reminded me of).

Will do, thanks. The 2.1 stroker running an FP Black I'm building now will be running Brad Penn 20w-50 (off topic yes but cool none the less LOL)

I don't know who is copying who, but Dr. Haas and Bob the Oil Guy have exactly the same write up's about oil! It's all very good information, but someone is guilty of plagiarism.
