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.

There is simply no better products

As a kart racer I can not say enough about the quality and performance helping standards of the Lucas Oil Products. We have been using Lucas Oil Products in our kart for four years now and there is simply no better products. We race all over the southeast and people are always coming up and asking what we are using and how it is performing. Thank You Lucas Oil for your support and your awesome oil products.

AMAZING PRODUCT!

My family has used Lucas oil additive for years, from our vehicles to our semis. After hearing several opinions from others, as well as my own family, my boyfriend decided to give it a try. He is a die hard Lucas believer now! Earlier today he had an issue of his oil filter failing on his truck and causing most of the engine oil to spill out. We went essentially a mile before the oil pressure gauge started to drop & he coasted it onto the side of the road. The oil that was under the truck was a tackier feeling than before when he didn’t add the Lucas Oil Additive. While we sat on the side of the road he exclaimed “Lucas has my business forever. Their oil additive just saved my truck!
