One of the most common engine protection additives is ZDDP, also known as zinc. Zinc molecules form a sacrificial chemical coating that can withstand high pressure friction in valve-trains.
Today’s engine oils are generally designed to protect original stock engines. If your vehicle contains a performance-modified engine, you may require more zinc in your oil. Pennzoil has oils for applications such as these like Pennzoil GT Performance Racing Oil and Pennzoil Platinum Racing Oil.
If you’re looking to purchase these special engine oils, give us a call at 1-800-BEST-OIL to talk to a technical expert to find the best Pennzoil product for your performance vehicle.
