Comments about Lucas Oil Products TB Zinc-Plus Engine Break-In Oil Additive (16 oz.):
great and a must for todays oils without the zinc. since 1990' they have been reducing zinc and phosphorus in engines due to the newer engines with roller cams that do not require them so if you have a engine with a flat tappet camshaft do yourself a favor and extend the life of your engine with some of this stuff it will save your camshafts life

Comments about Lucas Oil Products TB Zinc-Plus Engine Break-In Oil Additive (16 oz.):
Been using this in my stock 69 302 DZ since the day I bought it. After 87k miles I decided on a complete engine rebuild due to valve guides. Upon disassembly my shop was quite surprised to see that my stock 30 - 30 cam was still in EXCELLENT condition. We put the "old" cam back in and after 5000 miles on the rebuild everything is OK. Just the sweet rattle of a solid cam !!!
Pros
- Reduces Wear
- Saves flat tappet cams
Cons
Best Uses
- Cam break in and regular
- Regular Use
Comments about Lucas Oil Products TB Zinc-Plus Engine Break-In Oil Additive (16 oz.):
adds zinc necessary to prevent wiped cam lobes / lifters in engines using flat tappet cams. A little pricey but no failures to date using this and valvoline VR-1 racing oil.

I'm building a 403 olds engine right now and going to be breaking it in within the next week. Will this product work for the first start-up as an additive, knowing it will be a street use after this, and not continuing use after the break in cycle? Also will it work with a sunthetic oil?Asked on 4/2/2012 by Anonymous1 answer

Q:
The levels of zinc and phosphorus (ZDDP-zinc dialkyl dithiosphosphate)in today's off-the-shelf motor oils has all but been removed resulting in extreme wear for flat-tappet engines(old cars). Can this additive be used all the time in old cars to restore the ZDDP levels? Comp Cams 159-12 Engine Break-In Oil Additive is similar. Which to use?Asked on 1/19/2010 by pontonjon from Flanders, NJ1 answer

Q:
Do you add when the oil is already full? Vehicle has only 2000 miles. Oil change not due until 7500 miles.Asked on 1/3/2010 by Anonymous2 answers
A:
Never overfill an engine with any product. Either wait for the oil change or you could change the filter now and that should leave almost enough room for the product. If you are changing you oil at 7500 miles, I assume you have a newer car. This additive is only used for older cars, (muscle cars) flat tappet cams. If you have a newer car don't waste your money on oil additives. NOT NECESSARY!
