Not sure if this is something new but it looks like a couple somewhat higher zddp flat tappet formulations in there. Check out the straight 40 weight!

I've posted links to this before, but maybe not everyone has seen it. Amsoil has some of the highest ppm zinc levels that I've seen. I use the new 5w-20 and 10w-30 Dominator synthetic oils. The numbers are listed below.

PPM seems to be the standard measurement used for comparisons. Don't know why they use %'s so don't know how to compare!

The entire bullitin is here: Amsoil high zinc/phosphorus formulations.

Thank you!
That's why I like moparts so much. There is always somebody who knows!

Sorry Zippy. Nothing personal. But it bothers me when a company puts up flashy stats that can't be readily compared to other products. But then, I didn't know that the conversion was so simple.
