Author	Topic: Switching from dino oil to Royal purple
Gary Gearhead Posts: 591 From: Sarasota, Fla. USA Registered: Jun 99	posted 12-14-2001 09:42 PM I have about 100 miles on my new engine and wanted to change the oil. I wanted to change over from the straight 40w Kendal racing oil to Royal purple syn. How many miles do you guys put on your engines before you consider the rings seated---500-1500? I think I'll just change the oil with the same iv'e been using for now, maybe it's best to change over on next oil change in say 1500 miles to make sure the rings are seated. Opinions?

You can switch over now. ------------------ Alex Denysenko Co-Administrator and Moderator NHRA/IHRA/SRA member NHRA and IHRA SS/LA National Record Holder '00 & '01 Fleet of FoMoCo products Moneymaker Bio US Class Nationals link IP: Logged

I wanted to get the oil out of there as it's been running so rich im sure it's contaminated with fuel. Have to protect my investment Thanks IP: Logged
