Not as critical with a low lift cam (cams in a raptor) applications, but I am not a fan of low ZDDP oils with the Dexos1 rated oils.
Mobil 1 is fine I am sure and likely a step up from the indmar semi syn, but if you are going to pick a Mobil 1 5w30, I would pick a non Dexos 1 variant.
I also wouldn’t go crazy with the ZDDP levels as too much is unfriendly to the cats.

The ZDDP I was talking about is in the SAE 50 gear oil. No problem with cats... or dogs for that matter.

I just had same problem of finding the synthetic 50 weight trans oil anywhere locally. Best thing I could find online was 1 gallon of Lucas oil product via Amazon.

I follow you, but was simply saying not all Mobil 1 5w30’s are the same.
If I were choosing a Mobil 5w30 for the raptors, I would choose the non dexos1 versions.
Dexos1 M1 has been too low on ZDDP the past several years.
I would like it to be between 850 and 1100 ppm and Dexos1 M1 has been running 600-750ppm.
I wouldn’t go too much higher than 1100ppm ZDDP for concern on the catalytic converters.
EDIT: according to the 2018 product chart, the Dexos1 5w30’s have improved, previous years were much lower.
But as you can see, all M1 5w30’s are not the same.

I guess I didn't get the same manual because it doesn't list any info for oil's or qty's. I sure do appreciate this forum and all the help.

Quick question. I’ve drained all the low water points... is it necessary to run the antifreeze, or just extra precaution? I live in Colorado, it’s not in a heated garage.
Thanks for the info on this thread... so far it was a 10 min job![]()
