Possibly this? http://www.redlineoil.com/product.aspx?pid=6&pcid=21 (http://www.redlineoil.com/product.aspx?pid=6&pcid=21)

it never occured to me that Red Line oil was red (duhhh!) I put in 3.5 qts of XXXXX oil. I've been using XXXXX oil for years. XXXXX oil is the best you can buy. ;D [evil] (NOT gonna start an oil thread!) Title: Re: red oil? Post by: Curmudgeon on May 12, 2012, 03:35:59 PM In my V8's I use BG Sheer Power semi-synthetic because that's what they like. Also red, as I believe is BG MOA oil additive. BG can show you lots of engines with 300,000+ miles, clean as a whistle and hardly any scoring.
