When In Doubt,THROTTLE ON
Regarding the testing Mr. Bob did. First off, I wonder how old this test is? My main problem I see with the gear oil test is he used a fully synthetic gear oil with the standard-dino oil lucas additive. Sure, it says good for synthetics or conventional oils, but Lucas now makes a fully synthetic oil additive. Has anyone tried it yet? I've used it a couple times with AmsOil 10w30 and its nothing like the conventional Lucas. It is a lot thinner and seems to be more "clingy". I know the synthetic stuff raised the oil pressure about 5-8 pounds from idle to redline in my 500hp small block and the oil pressure didn't drop/fluctuate nearly as much once the oil got good and hot. I don't think I buy that test one bit. Its so inconclusive since he used two different oils, compared them, then added the Lucas to just one. I smell a fish there.
