Default Zddp oil

I was lsearching the net on information relating to ZDDP. I saw a member of this club looking for premixed oil with ZDDP. I know of two. The first one is in the US Classic Car Motor Oil, and in Canada Collector Automobile Motor Oil. www.camoils.com Both of these oils maintain the old oil formulas with the right amount of ZDDP for flat bottom lifter engines.

Kind of a strange thing to post in a C6 forum. All C6 engines have roller tappet lifters.

The vast majority of oils, over the counter and race-oriented have ZDDP. The only difference is how much.
While ZDDP content has decreased, manufactures have found other ingredients to replace ZDDP. Red Line oils have a healthy doese of ZDDP...about 12-1500ppm. I would have any more than that in my Vette.
