Default Brad Penn Supplier

I thought it was about time to change the oil in the White Wonder again and did a search for Brad Penn suppliers. I found a place called Oil Warehouse. They are by far less expensive than anyone else I found... $36.66 for 12 qts of 20/50 semi synthetic. Everyplace else was in the $65.00 range. Has anyone bought from these folks before?

Did you check L&N Engineering's web site for pricing?

I just checked their price. You may be correct, but keep in mind some of thier sales profits helps to fund oil analysis information that Charles shares with boards like Rennlist.

As much as I like the BP and Charlie. I end up using a case every change so I have gone back to Valvoline VR-1 and it is available locally.

Have you asked BP if there is a supplier in your area?

I just started using Cam 2 20w50 Blue Blood Racing oil in my 930. My friend gets it for $3 somethin per qt. It's got a high zinc rating too.

I stay with Charle's as my source (LN). He's provided way much data (work) that has benefited me and my car, for sure.

The cost difference usually depends on the distance from warehouse to retailer. Those closest to a stocking warehouse will get the lowest price.

I've organized a group buy from Oil Warehouse previously. A minimum purchase of X cases will spread out the shipping cost.
