    Stopped All Previous Engine Leaks
    By  GLENN,  a  Verified Buyer  from  Orlando, FL  on  April 14, 2025
    After much research and thought I finally decided to switch to synthetic motor oil last year in my 1979 Corvette with a 350 crate engine with low mileage. There had been several oil leaks from the engine area but after running Amsoil Z-Rod, the leaks all stopped. I used it with the Wix oil filter. This year I did the annual oil change and still no leaks and the engine actually purrs differently from previously without the Amsoil. I am a believer.
    Bottom Line
    Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

    By  ANTHONY,  a  Verified Buyer  on  October 11, 2024
    I use this oil in a Ford Cleveland 408 stroker and my 66 Mustang GT 289 A- code engine. After a refresh on the stroker, I literally could have reused the bearings. This is 550+ hp street engine that gets drove like it's supposed to. I use Amsoil in everything I drive. Also, broke in the 408 on the Dyno with the Amsoil break in oil.
    Bottom Line
    Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

    Z-ROD motor oil
    By  AL,  a  Verified Buyer  from  Arkansas  on  January 08, 2024
    In the early days when I was building custom cars and street rods there weren't roller camshafts so the oil had ingredients to protect flat tappet camshafts, along came Catalytic converters so oil companies removed the Zink & Phosphorus from their oil as they destroyed Catalytic Converters!!!!!! Most all classic cars restored don't have a Catalytic Converter, but need an oil with Zink & Phosphorus tp protect there camshafts during break-in and after that as well!!! Z-Rod has these ingredients in it!!!!!
    Bottom Line
    Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
