I havent looked in a while, but it would be nice to know a correlation between oils with TriNuclear moly vs oils with "organic" moly. I think we assume that the Pennzoils use TriNuclear, based on the ppm of moly (80-ish IIRC). When we see 250+ we assume organic.
But....is 80ppm of tri-nuke good enough? I know one of the advantages is supposed to be that they can get away with less concentration for the same effect, but when I hear my engine running louder on stuff with TriNuke vs stuff with organic (or an organic additive added after the fact), it makes me wonder if tri-nuke is only good in some cases whereas organic is better in others.
There is some paper 75ppm tn = 200 ppm organic m. This is one posted syn thread pdf. Page twelve is why I like over 200ppm moly. That is the lowest cam wear, and as we know this is the hemi's issue.
