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.

HEAR IT FROM OUR CUSTOMERS

In 2 days my steering is back to normal. Honest.

My '06 Ford Freestar was gradually getting harder to steer. No leaks and a tight belt so no slipping. I emptied as much fluid as I could and added a bottle of Lucas Power Steering Fluid and Conditioner which the bottle says eliminates hard spots.. in 2 days my steering is back to normal. Honest. It worked for me and its been 3 wks now. A garage near me gave me a price of $569.00 for a new rack installed. I lucked out. For $10.00 a bottle it was worth a try. I'm very happy.

I added this to the gas and was amazed… it stopped making the sound that I thought was a rod bearing.

My truck engine has over 200,000 miles and a knock started and I thought it was a rod bearing. I was reading the label on the product Complete Engine Treatment and the words, (stops engine knocks.) I added this to the gas and was amazed, and still am, it stopped making the sound that I thought was a rod bearing. I do have to add the treatment to each fill up, but it does work.

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.

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!
