225 promax

What oil would you run in this motor? Synthetic blend or 100% synthetic? Going to run Pennzoil.

Thanks

I would run a blend. Mercury premium + would be my choice.

I used Pennzoil in my drag yrs ago. What ratio should I use on this promax?

Xlf is fine. I use premium plus at about 40:1. I get the premium plus at autozone for 16 a gallon

I've found it interesting after talking to a handful of engine builders about pennzoil that some swear by it and some swear at it. I either run pennzoil or merc/ quicksilver.

X2 I run Merc PremPlus only because we cant get the Pennzoil semi up hear. Ive ran Quicksilver once. I was told not to run full synthetic because of the steel bores. Being porise the oil stays in the holes better than full synthetic.Call it longer hang time.:big grin Made sense to me so thats what I did. Nic sleeves need the slipperier full synthetic for heat transfer control on the smoother surface. 9 years and counting without a rebuild so must be working.:gasp i had to find some wood to knock!! its like saying shutout!!
