Larry, If you are running a flat tappet cam your friend is dead on. It's a
lack of zinc among other things. Frankly I have gone to Rotella at the
advice of a chemist and ex drag racer. I don't know what to believe about
oil anymore.

Subject: [Chevelle-list] Engine Oil
A friend of mine who is a fleet services mgr for the City of Mt View Ca.,
and a avid drag racing fan, AND who drives his BB 67 Camaro to work
everyday mentioned that due to pollution control laws oil makers have
removed crucial additives that prevent wear from oil used by gas engines.
He recommends that I consider diesel engine oil as it still has the
additives that can help prevent abnormal wear. Any comments?
