[QUOTE="Cosmicdrifter, post: 10444267, member: 112183"] I know that the subject of "which oil" is contentious, and I'm not here to make a comparison. All I wanted to do was clarify for some members a point that I was confused about - because of internet conflicts about the facts. I bought some Royal Purple 5W-20 XPR Racing oil to use in my Cobra; then read on the internet (which we know is full of crap) that it was not to be used in street cars because it did not have to proper additives to fight acids and other harmful compounds created by short trips (whatever those are). So the implication was it had to be changed frequently; I wanted the oil because it was recommended by many engine builders and has the additives to minimize cold start wear and spirited driving wear. As a last resort I called the technical staff at Royal Purple, told them what kind of car I had and asked about whether it was appropriate for the engine. They said it DID have all the additives appropriate for street driving and the change intervals would be 10,000 to 12,000 miles.:rockon: [/QUOTE]
