Lets try this again - I posted in the wrong section the first time.
Background: I race vintage road racing sidecars. I lost my old motor due to piston slap and just got a good used motor dirt cheap. The new motor is a '80 Suzuki GS750 and it had 14,000 miles on it. I have an external oil cooler and an external oil filter. I only race in the summer. I change oil/filter after every race weekend which means there would be roughly 100 miles on the oil when I change it out.
This year I'll be using Blackstone and get an analysis after each race weekend.
I can save a LOT of money switching to Rotella T6. I use 6 quarts of oil with the filter and external cooler added in.
Looking at the results posted here, it appears I'll be okay.
Thoughts?
