so is that using oil that was designed for modern motors with roller lifters in an engine that should have had a sae 30 mineral oil and a 1970s additive package.

Chrysler cross fire oil in a road runner as it were

or using the oil designed for the job and not using an additive?

cos if the oil is specifically designed to do the job....it should do the job..
