For the California crowd this might be handy and beneficial .

30 wt was the original recommendation wasn't it? And this has some
zinc...

It also works in my 911.

I think 5qts of straight 30wt and a bottle of ZDDP would be significantly less expensive if the only goal is higher concentrations of Zinc and Phosphorus.

You may be right but where I am, it's almost impossible to find a straight
30 wt. oil. This has the advantage of already having the zinc and it's a
30 weight.

This one is much easier for me to get, I will probably run it.
