Castor 927. I don't understand guys with 10 thousand dollar engines running walmart oil. I don't know, maybe it doesn't matter, but it just seems wrong.

You do realize Walmart doesn't actually make the oil right? If paying $38 for the same oil at your local high performance shop makes you feel better then by all means have at it.

Walmart doesn't make the oil? Oh, it's fine then.
Yes, I realize walmart doesn't make the oil and I'm not saying that I would pay more any one place or the other. Last I checked Walmart didn't sell higher quality oils that you buy at a high performance shop.

You make my point perfectly. They sell the exact same oil, just cheaper. We burn the walmart stuff in our $10k motors because thats what the guys who built them told us too.

Yes, if my service manual tells me to use a specific oil and walmart happens to sell it.
Once again for those who don't seem to get it. We are using the oil recommended for our engines by our engine builder. We are not buying "cheap" oil, we are buying oil cheaper. If you feel more comfortable spending more for the same thing then go for it.

Hence the reason we are saying your engine builder may not be the sharpest guy/girl on the block.

I just spent 3 hours at 5 local WalMarts and not the 1st one had Klotz Benol on the shelf. I guess I will be buying my oil at high dollar shops until Wal Mart realizes that selling crap is not always the best move.

Let me ask this---
Is it possible 'YOUR' engine builder tells you to run NRG(avgas) mixed with cheapsilver is because he knows after paying that much money for a motor he realizes you can't afford fuel/oil? Just askin.

I am pretty sure that GOD himself can't help me roll. LOL I got barrell crashes down to a science though. It's cool to hear a crowd say ouch all at the same time.
Oh, and I pay 15.00 per gallon for Benol. It's much cheaper when you buy it by the barrell.

No, you hadn't made a point until this post. Your engine builder told you to use whatever oil you are using, that's great. Then quicksilver or whatever you are using works for you, that's good.
The guy who built my engines recommends I use Castor927, so that's what I use. If I could buy it at walmart cheaper I gladly would. I've had good results with what I'm running, I don't plan to change. Plus it smells like French Fries....which makes it infinitely better than your oil. I win. Haha.

You don't need low ash with power valves.
Just clean them once a year and you are good to go.

Powervalves, showervalves. They are all for those that don't know how to build power without them.
