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.

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. -

Try out the Motorcycle Oil Stabilizer you’ll hear the difference…

My Harley always had the top end tick like most bikes do. So I decided to purchase the Lucas Motorcycle Oil Stabilizer. Wow I can't believe how much this has helped granted it's still makes noise but it dampens it down alot! I run Lucas Synthetic 20w/50 in my motor with Lucas Gear Oil in my trans. And Lucas primary oil. I don't care what anybody says Lucas makes some great oils! Try out the Motorcycle Oil Stabilizer you'll hear the difference it made a believer out of me and it will you too!
