Where to get Brad Penn oil?
« on: August 12, 2009, 12:21:49 PM »
I heard there was somewhere in Langley selling it.
Also, the weight of the oil...what do I need?
Thx

That would be nice if somebody in Langley was selling it.

I use 20w-50w for my drag car. I have an extra case of 12 for $100.00 cash if you want.  I can bring it with me on Friday to the drags. 

Also what you need depends on how your engine was built with clearances.  10 psi for every 1000rpm is what most people agree on.  My engine was built with very generous clearances to allow lots of oil slinging and once warm gets exactly what I need.  I would say most cars would use a thiner oil like 5-10w -30w.

I use Udo lifters and do not worry about what oil I use. I am only concerned with decent shear strength synthetics.

I idle my engines when I break them in  :)

 Pacific West Performance Inc.  The contact there is Jeff Alton, and his phone number is 604-313-3494.This is where I get it, I use 10/30 partial synthetic. Jeff deals mainly with Porsche ask for a recommendation on the weight of oil. I hope this helps.

 Best regards Jeff Sanderson
