Hot Rod & Classic Car 10W-40 Motor Oil

Lucas Hot Rod & Classic Car Motor Oil SAE 10W-40 is manufactured with the highest quality paraffinic base oils and is fortified with a unique additive package containing high levels of zinc, molybdenum and phosphorus, which provides a tougher, thicker additive film for maximum protection even under the most severe conditions. It lowers oil temperatures, extends oil life and minimizes metal fatigue. It improves the film strength between the cylinder wall and piston rings and slows oil burning and improves pressure in worn engines. It has good cold temperature properties and stands up to high operating temperatures. It is compatible with methanol and all racing fuels, as well as with synthetic and non-synthetic oils.

Lucas Hot Rod & Classic Car Motor Oil SAE 10W-40 is for muscle, showroom, classic and trophy cars without catalytic converters. It can be used in racing applications. Not recommended for passenger car use.

Available in convenient 5 quart bottles, the formulation is perfect for the Hot Rod and Classic Car crowd with an increased zinc value of 1600 PPM. Because many of these very special machines often spend long periods off the roads, a number of the components of the additive package used in Lucas' Marine oils to provide rust and corrosion protection have been included in its unique formula.

HEAR IT FROM OUR CUSTOMERS

I would rate them a 10 out of 10

I use Lucas lubricants in all my equipment from diesel, gas and 2 cycle. I have never had any issues and my equipment runs and starts lime day one. Lucas is a great product and I would rate them a 10 out of 10 for a quality of product.

Lucas is SERIOUS about what they sell.

After checking my Power Steering Fluid on my Kia Spectra, I noticed the level was low. Bought the Kia new and its now 4 years old. I decided to drain the rest of the power steering fluid and replace with Lucas Power Steering Fluid purchased at Auto Zone. What a noticeable difference in steering! Price was a few dollars higher and I would spend a few more knowing Lucas is SERIOUS about what they sell. 100% would recommend Lucas Power Steering Fluid.

Try out the Motorcycle Oil Stabilizer you’ll hear the difference…

My Harley always had the top end tick like most bikes do. So I decided to purchase the Lucas Motorcycle Oil Stabilizer. Wow I can't believe how much this has helped granted it's still makes noise but it dampens it down alot! I run Lucas Synthetic 20w/50 in my motor with Lucas Gear Oil in my trans. And Lucas primary oil. I don't care what anybody says Lucas makes some great oils! Try out the Motorcycle Oil Stabilizer you'll hear the difference it made a believer out of me and it will you too!

Now the engine is “humming” like it was brand new.

Complete Engine Treatment added to engine oil eliminated squeaking from engine during ignition and now engine is "humming" like it was brand new. 2003 LEXUS RX 300 108K.
