Re: [Amc-list] noisy after rebuild

I'm not sure who builds for sealed power anymore, they used to be good.
EOS is General Motors engine Oil Supplement. Someone has the part number here I think. Most dealers don't stock it. I might be able to find a part number for it. I would have to go look on the archives here or over on the Strokers list. EOS is high in ZDDP and such for breakin purposes mostly, but a lot of people are taking to running it in flat tappet engines. 
  From what we've seen replacement cams are going about 30,000 miles on newer blend oils. No scientific tests have been done that I know of. EOS is about $7-9 and too me seems like cheap insurance.
