Hot Rod & Classic Car 10W-40 Motor Oil

Lucas Hot Rod & Classic Car Motor Oil SAE 10W-40 is manufactured with the highest quality paraffinic base oils and is fortified with a unique additive package containing high levels of zinc, molybdenum and phosphorus, which provides a tougher, thicker additive film for maximum protection even under the most severe conditions. It lowers oil temperatures, extends oil life and minimizes metal fatigue. It improves the film strength between the cylinder wall and piston rings and slows oil burning and improves pressure in worn engines. It has good cold temperature properties and stands up to high operating temperatures. It is compatible with methanol and all racing fuels, as well as with synthetic and non-synthetic oils.

Lucas Hot Rod & Classic Car Motor Oil SAE 10W-40 is for muscle, showroom, classic and trophy cars without catalytic converters. It can be used in racing applications. Not recommended for passenger car use.

Available in convenient 5 quart bottles, the formulation is perfect for the Hot Rod and Classic Car crowd with an increased zinc value of 1600 PPM. Because many of these very special machines often spend long periods off the roads, a number of the components of the additive package used in Lucas' Marine oils to provide rust and corrosion protection have been included in its unique formula.

Lucas hi-mileage stabilizer IMMEDIATELY quieted engine

2003 F150 5.4L Triton 3-valve. Timing chain, guides and cover had disintegrated at about 280,000 and constant oil leakage. Put new chain, guides, oil strainer, pick-up tube etc and drove to 345,000 using 20w50 and losing about 2 quarts a month. Noisy upon start-up which I understand is typical for these Tritons plus lifters made constant noise. Was about to install a new/used motor when I figured what the heck try a bottle of Lucas hi-mileage stabilizer. IMMEDIATELY quieted engine and after adding another bottle a week later, engine is running QUIETLY!!! leaks less too. Have installed new coil packs and I think this 5.4 might just make it to 500,000!! I also added 1qt to the tranny...shifts smoother.

Lucas is SERIOUS about what they sell.

After checking my Power Steering Fluid on my Kia Spectra, I noticed the level was low. Bought the Kia new and its now 4 years old. I decided to drain the rest of the power steering fluid and replace with Lucas Power Steering Fluid purchased at Auto Zone. What a noticeable difference in steering! Price was a few dollars higher and I would spend a few more knowing Lucas is SERIOUS about what they sell. 100% would recommend Lucas Power Steering Fluid.

When we got out of the car we noticed right away that almost all of the noise was gone!

My son's 2005 VW GTI with the 4 cylinder turbo and 127K miles on it sounded like there hammers inside the engine. The car was close to needing a oil change so I bought a quart of High Mileage Oil Stabilizer. He changed the oil adding the stabilizer started it up and we took it for about a 8 mile drive. When we got out of the car we noticed right away that almost all of the noise was gone! He has a 200 mile drive back to school in a few days and I'm willing to bet all of the noise will be gone by the time he gets back to campus. Thank you for a great product!

I love LUCAS OIL

I have used nothing but Lucas Oil since I was younger. I've always seen improvements in every vehicle I've drove or recommended to use. The boost of mpg's is awesome. I know I'm burning cleaner. And OIL. Whoa don't get me started. Every oil change I supplement a quart. Dry starts gone. Ticking, noise, rattle, tapping........ gives in to the products. I love LUCAS OIL. I will always use it, my kids, family, and friends will too. Especially since they have me do their oil changes.

I Added The Lucas Oil Stabilizer and There Was an Immediate Result.

I have always had a loud top end on my Harley Sportster. And ever since I started using this oil [Lucas 20w50 Motorcycle Oil], my engine is quieter and have noticed much better my motorcycle is running overall. I added the Lucas oil stabilizer yesterday and there was an immediate result. I LOVE Lucas products and as a motorcycle mechanic for Harley Davidson, I tell everyone I know with Harley’s to use this oil. -
