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

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've been using Lucas Products for my vehicles for many, many years now with complete satisfaction. I came upon their gun oil many years back while at my local auto parts place while still living in California. Been using it ever since while all the other products I have collect dust.

Now the engine is “humming” like it was brand new.

Complete Engine Treatment added to engine oil eliminated squeaking from engine during ignition and now engine is "humming" like it was brand new. 2003 LEXUS RX 300 108K.

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.
