ENGINE OIL SUPPLEMENT BY GM
We used to use the stuff back in the 60's to help seat the rings and engine break-in after a rebuild. I was told by the service manager at a large Chevy dealer to put it in my 02 LS1 to quieten down the infamous GM piston slap.

The zinc wells must be drying up?
Actually they are taking the zinc out of the street oils because it is hard on cat converters which makes the loss of zinc laden EOS painful for those of us depend on it for break in and hard running security.

How much zinc is in Redline engine oil or are you just making a general observation?
