July 21, 20231 yr comment_655281 I spotted a FB post the other day where someone was asking about the best oil and filer for their L-series engine. So. I did a search on any available reports or charts on zinc / ZDDP content and came across this one. The new Castrol product is certainly better than the one listed in the chart but the Lucas oils still seems to be the top conventional oil products.
