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.

Thank you Lucas Oil for helping me save time and money!

I have been using Lucas Oil products on the farm since 2001. Since then we have gotten more hours between overhauls in our farm tractors and semi trucks. Thank you Lucas Oil for helping me save time and money!

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!
