Yeah he said that Royal Purple is really good but heaps expensive.

I would be able to get this oil at cost price cos I work with him, that the main reason why im interested in its performance.

I use Royal Purple in my car! :P

might give RP a go when i do my next oil change. maybe. but i can get 300V at cost... so ill probably just use that again.

Take Gillies advice from the Castrol commercial:

"Car's don't need to be warmed up. Just turn the key and away you go."

Good on ya, Gillies. I'll take that sound advice from such a knowledgeable man.

Does anyone here use ULX 110 Oil??????

Yep I know the oil and the state distributor who I worked with at Adelaide Engine Service many years ago.....good stuff.

It's not actually made here, it's imported from the US and blended then bottled here.

I don't use anything else....but stick to the regular change intervals suggested by your owner's manual.

Just quietly.....I think Troy was living under a rock in the USA :P .

Seriously though, many Top Fuellers use it and reputable dyno shops sell it, ie: Boostworx, Hi Tech Dyno, Graham West, and I think TurboTune (not sure on that one) etc etc.

Not to mention Adelaide's own Marco in the Keith Black powerered '57 Chev.

Sorry Pete? Couldn't hear you. My hearing is still damaged from that top fueller :P

on a slightly different note, this what I posted in that last thread that got moved to the Mods & Admins discussion area before you all had a chance to view it.

Normally I'm a little more forgiving than Andrew but due to that 9 page effort a little while ago (1/2 of it full of IBTL's) that pissed me off, I distinctly remember saying that I'm over reading pages and pages of that crap.

Hence why all 3 of you would've got an official warning but Andrew beat me to it and has obviously let you off the hook.

EDIT: Ripp3r, you've obviously just joined recently to flog your dirty wares me thinks and unless you've been hiding under a rock all your life, you should know better that to try and flog this kind a crap on a public forum, so regardless of Nightcrawler's leniency, you will not be escaping the banstick.

I won't bring up the names of the other 2 now cause I think you got the message.

    • So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!
    • OK, few more things sorted and it is ready for a shakedown on 10-Oct, with one weird thing. Changed the run in oil and filter for the good stuff. 8l came out, about 8.5 went in with filter so that looks all good. Changed the starter (again), this time for a brand new one, works good. Interesting that the Taaaarks one is shorter than factory but spins harder, I guess electronics have moved on a little in the last 30 years. Will be nice to have a bit of extra space under there. Put the timing cover back on, and noted where the cam gears were set as a record.  Will need to double check the timing but it is pretty close. Also put the coil pack cover and intake snorkel back on. Exhaust Inlet Changed the water out for coolant, bled up nicely. Removed the rear brake pads (well worn factory sumitomo ones!), gave the hardware a good clean and reassembled. I've put bendix XP on the back again because the price is excellent at $150 a set and they worked well on the V37. Front pads have plenty so no issue there
    • Mine is all -12, I’m running a dry sump in a billet block though 
    • HG's high flow is not "bolt on". The core is shorter, moves the comp cover rearwards in the engine bay. means you have to deal with the inlet plumbing a little bit. This is probably something to consider with every "bolt on" turbo anyway.
