Read the last issue of the TDR. It mentions what you are asking. Its in the front, not back where the oil conversation is with John Martin.

I know a lot of people like them but I've been running conventional rotella t for the last 180k. I started with convetional delvac but the store stopped selling it hence the switch I have 216k with no problems I guess I'll find out in another 200-300k if I am right.

If you are referring to "Lucas Oil Stabilizer", I would NOT use it. Over on Bob is the Oil Guy, someone sent a new sample of it in for analysis, and the results showed there is absolutely nothing in it! All it is pure base bright stock with ZERO additives, and does nothing except thicken the oil. In fact if one uses it, you are actually depleting the overall additive package of the oil fill because you are leaving out a quart of oil with additive for the Lucas with nothing.

If you are looking for a real additive that makes up for the good stuff that CJ took away, look at something else. I use 1 bottle (16 oz) of Red Line's new break-in additive now, and it is chocked full of zinc, moly, etc.
