Not sure what oil to run in the freshly built formula atlantic spec 3k race engine of my old mans, is just being run in atm, from memory its 12.5:1 comp ratio, has big cam, 45mm webers etc etc a long list of work done, is worked to its limit.

 

Would like some advice on oil from people who have owned heavily modified K motors as i am more familiar with turbo import engines, i want to make sure it is the most ideal oil for it as the bottom end rebuild on this was far from cheap.

 

discuss please :) cheers

I used to use Pennzoil. I'd have to look at the container to know which one.

Probably as may opinions as there are oils on the market...

 

Ask Billzilla, and read 'Bob the oil guy' for background, although I haven't chased race oils on his webpage.

Ahhhh, This is that old hillclimb upright 3k ke10?? Good to hear it's still around!

I am using a straight weight oil in my standard 1uz only because it will only be seeing close to redline the rest of it's life.

Canola.

Redline, worth the money

castrol edge 10w-60 run it in my 5k at auto cross revs 7-7500 all day no problems

cheers mick

Yeah thats the one still about, we just don't get it out much with everything else going on

 

Thanks for the input, will continue to research

Could you throw me a pm or something perhaps if you take it out to any events or something? I'd be insanely keen for a look!
