For the fella that was interested in the 76 lubes older formula we tested. Relies on dipserants and not detergents for longevity. Lab was Amsoils old OAI lab.

Interesting oil and it performed well in a 2.9 I 6 Volvo S80 test engine.

Thanks Terry. Do you have any info on the synthetic formula that you can share?

 

[Primus]

At this time Unocal claimed that they use patented ashless additives in their 76 Nascar High Performance Oils (unlike Nascar Synthetic oils). May be this is an explanation of such values ?

 

[Terry]

Primus correct. This oil is the HIPO formula.


I do not have data on that oil, SSDude, sorry.
