Quaker State racing oil from 1976

[CurtisC]

I have around 5 cases ( real case 24 cans) of Q. S.racing 30wt from around 1976. I'm thinking this should have all the good stuff in it. Does anyone know for sure? I'm wanting to run it in a Blown Alcohol Dragster.

I don't think you'll find much support for using that oil in anything, especially such a demanding application.

I bet it looks cool, you could probably sell them and use the money for a more suitable oil.

Sorry to be a buzzkill.

I`d keep them sealed in mint condition and hang on to them as a supercoooool collectable :^)

Oils have come a long way since 1976. Do you want to jeopardize the thousands of dollars you have in a blown alcohol engine?

You'll do real damage to the engine if you use them.

But all is not lost - you can sell them as collectors items and make a handsome return. They're pretty rare and unique!

Agree with everyone else. Save and sell them as collector items. Modern day oil is better than a racing oil from the 70's.

Use it for a garage heater.
