Some of you may know that I have a stash of vintage oil going back to the early 1960s. I am currently running 10 W 40 Quaker State from a 1973 in my 1973 Datsun 240 Z. I just picked up a 1971 Datsun 510 station wagon that I am going to run some of the old Quaker state super blend in as well. The weight on the top says 10–20 W 30.
The filter is going to be an oversized Fram PH8A that is about 1 1/2 times larger than the stock oil filter. Oil pressure is 60 psi cold startup and sounds good. I may run this for a year or so which should include some autocrosses, mountain runs, and around town driving then get an oil analysis done.
This car has a built high compression 2.0 L20B with headwork and a cam backed by a 280z 5 speed. It has full coilover suspension and swaybars. I picked it up as a neat little parts hauler for my 240z but It feels like this thing would actually out pull the z on the top end.
