## Description

This specially formulated oil is designed for muscle, showroom, classic, and trophy cars without catalytic converters. Lucas Oil Hot Rod & Classic Car 10W-40 Motor Oil provides maximum engine protection with rust and corrosion resistance, while improving performance, extending oil life, and reducing maintenance time with its cool and quiet operation. It improves oil pressure in worn engines for optimal engine performance and provides cool and quiet operation, ensuring a smooth and efficient driving experience. Extended drain intervals mean less frequent oil changes, saving your maintenance time

Review: Very good oil. Highly recommended for older engines with flat tappet camshafts. Newer oils, including synthetic oils, do not contain the proper zinc additives, to protect the cam and lifters. It’s the only oil that I will use in older cars, such as my 67 Fairlane 500 convertible 289 and my 1979 Olds 98 convertible with a high compression 455 Rocket.
Review: Yes, this is expensive stuff but if you want the ultimate wear protection for older engines you can’t get much better than this.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What quantity am i getting?  what does  "3x1/5q" in the title description mean?**
A: 5 quarts. I don't know what 3x1/ means, but it's 5 quarts. You can see it on the label in the picture.

**Q: can i use this on 1975 chevy k20 pickup truck w/400 small block? mostly cruising around town**
A: The main reason I use this oil product is because it meets/exceeds the zinc additive levels required for the flat tappet cam on my GM 327 V8. The engine is very happy with it and oil changes show exceptional wearability.  That said, you'll want to conduct your own evaluations of oil products for your engine application.

**Q: Can use this in a 67-68. Chevy 350 engine for my 59 chevy truck?**
A: Yes, that engine needs zinc. Flat tappet

**Q: Is this full synthetic?**
A: If you just take the time to read it all.. Lucas oil for Hot Rods & Muscle cars is recommended for most engines from the 50s,60s &70s that were designed to use a conventional oil like what was available back then...It has additives like zinc that are not found in today's oils & therefore,it is NOT compatable with any cars with catalatic converters,(emissions controll system) & No,it is not a synthetic oil, it is conventional, which means it is petroleum based.
