well that part of the ad really doesn't matter to the 911 crowd since we need the zddp and that is only found in the racing oil, which it appears is on sale for $3.99. not as low as it has been but less than normal.

well, if you factor in the california sales tax on the 3.79 vs the rest of us with 3.99, then it all comes out about equal, however I'm with nineball on this one, still using up last years stock...

Time to head to O' Reily's. Thanks! I'm almost out from the last time that I bought 80 or 90 quarts.

Edit: what? Not Autozone? They usually do this around April/ May anyway...

So, is this the oil I should run in my 73 911? Just finishing up a rebuild on the motor and will be doing the break in and oil change. What grade should I use and how does it compare to the others? Ie: Brad Pen, Etc. I know the price is great, on sale in my home town of Tucson Arizona for $3.99.

Not coming up for my locale either. Is it just a matter of time, or do they skip some places?

Thanks Joe Bob - I was looking at the "oil specials" not "performance".
