"Although we've provided criteria to pick and choose an oil, the stand-out to us appears to be the AMSOIL, rating well in the viscosity and producing good horsepower.

"With the variety of grades, use this test as a guide but always follow the manufacturer's recommendation. But if we were to stick our neck out in anticipation of the lawsuits, from the information we gathered specific to the supplied oils in the test, we'd rate the oils in the following order:

1) AMSOIL
2) BP Visco 5000
3) Mobil 1
4) Mobil 1 (difference being price)
5) Hi-Tec HTO
6) Shell Helix Ultra
7) Royal Purple
8) Castrol R
9) Castrol SLX
10) Torco"

Keeping friction low helps hold down engine wear rates and temperature. Which helps engines last longer. Reducing friction also conserves fuel. But the real benefit of superior friction reduction in a race engine is greater speed. Speed, after all, wins races.

Torque and horsepower engine ratings indicate how much work an engine can do and how fast the work can be done. The work to be done by a race engine is moving the vehicle around the track and is a function of torque. The engine's horsepower determines how fast the vehicle is moved around the track.

Some of the energy produced by the combustion of the fuel-air mixture is consumed by friction along the way from the combustion chamber to the flywheel where torque and horsepower are measured. The more energy that escapes consumption, the more torque and horsepower there is available for moving the car.

In these tests, engines delivered more torque and horsepower when lubricated with AMSOIL Series 2000 20W-50 Synthetic Motor Oil than they did when lubricated with other race oils, indicating Series 2000 is the superior friction-reducer.

Most engine builders, including those who ran tests 1 and 3, find a two to four horsepower and two to four foot-pounds torque increase with Series 2000. The 24 horsepower and 21 foot-pounds torque increase reported in test 2 show this particular engine responds extremely well to the superior friction reducing ability of Series 2000.

Series 2000 Synthetic 0W-30 Motor Oil
Peoria, Illinois AMSOIL Serie 2000 Synthetic 0W-30 Motor Oil provided an average increase of 2.22 horsepower and 2.75 foot-pounds torque over the horsepower and oil in dynamometer testing performed on a 1996 Ford Taurus by the Dyno-Pro Diagnostic/Performance Center.

Don Mallinson, Dyno-Pro owner, said that with Series 2000, "We noticed a real increase in power. That indicated to me that we had fewer pumping losses and very likely a significant lessening of friction."
