Default Brad Penn: Quick Question...

Hey guys,
This is still the "good" BP oil to use, right? I seem to recall there was talk of BP having changed its formula, but that was some time ago. Gotta do an oil change soon and need to get the right stuff (that also is what's in there now). TIA!

Brad Penn changed its name to Penngrade. Yes, it is still considered the best fossil oil for early Porsches.

there are other good ones too with high Zinc... Valvoline VR1 which full Dino oil, M1 15w-50 which is full synthetic, Driven, and others with 'high zinc'

My 964 I use M1, my 71 I use VR1. Will switch to a full synthetic with the new engine build.
