Brad Penn did buy out the Kendall refinery in Pa. Kendall oil is still sold under the Kendall name but comes from a refinery in Texas and it is not the same Kendall oil from years ago and is not the green oil,it is only the Kendall name.Brad Penn oil is the Kendall oil from years ago.

true lanhan but what do they sell a quart for? kendall racing oil still uses zinc. Like I said valvoline vr1 or valvoline 803 are tops in my methanol ride.

I dont mean to offend anyone but the vr1 valvoline with zinc for 3.89 a quart running methanol injection with a top end lube has worked very well for me, lean out until temp hits 160, no methanol in the oil in over 2 years.

I don't recommend running any additive in a race motor running on gas. Most additaves really don't mix with oils very well. I use Mobile 1 Synthetic. Of course no synthetic during break in. I’ll just say Mobile has taken good care of my investments.
