Anyone here have any experience with Amsoil products? I'm a little curious about their PS fluid, and motor oil.

I convinced Brion to look into changing the race car over to M1 many years ago. He finally did his research and made the switch. I've seen the car come into the pits/paddock with the 275 degree oil temp gauge pinned (well past 275) where it stayed for 1/2 hour (mechanical gauge from autometer) after the car was shut down. The oil came out the same color it went in (not scientific), and until recently, the motors have stayed together perfectly (the recent problems were not oil related, they were dumb luck related, we had a distributor hold down bend and allow the timing to advance, we lost a freeze plug out of a head, we had a head stud pull out of the block, we had a water neck break and drain the coolant out of the motor and ran 4 laps with no water, etc).
I'd run redline, etc, but I've had good luck with M1 so far. |
