Red Line? VERY good oil. My dealer uses Red Line exclusively, a carry-over from never having had a racing failure with it. Possibly this?

could be...........
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.
(NOT gonna start an oil thread!)

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. Scroll down.

As is Motul 7100. Stays red for a surprisingly long time in the motor, as well.
