I contacted Shell RD about the crap going around that the Rotella oil manufactured with non zinc and other additives being left out is BS.
Every body is OK using this oul.

It has never been a non zinc oil where did you come with that info. When we ran 18/40 oil it use to be 1400 PPM of zinc and last I checked it was down to 950 and it was to be used with the new emmission engines.

It has been reformulated.

my motor builder c&s in butler,wi(next door to milwaukee) said everyone is switching over to brad penn for the nitrous and blower applications where oil contamination is a concern cause the oil stays slippery...last year i ran it for first time with a few nitrous runs and i say yep i agree!

also i heard the old rotella has reduced the zinc and phosporus content
