I'm wondering if anyone runs Joe Gibbs racing oil? I just picked up 2 cases from the shop who did all the mods on my car and this is what they recommended FR20 5W-20, this is what the website says about it as well "Designed for high performance Ford modular engines. Utilizes advanced synthetic base oils to provide high temperature and high shear protection. Ideal for supercharged Ford modular engines" Also wondering if anyone runs Torco racing fuel additive to boost there octane by 3 from 94 up to 97 (Canadian).

I ran some Torco in an old push rod hot rod years ago. It put an orange fuss on stuff in the combustion chamber. I did not note any ill effects from it, just an observation. I now just add some VP fuel in ratios to add a few points to the octane numbers.
I also have non ethanol available in my area.

I got American Racing Long tube headers , O/R X pipe, Doug’s exhaust cut outs into Borla S exhaust. Complimented by Steeda Cold air intake, cobra jet throttle body, 2.4” pulley, Steeda belt tensioner, 170 degree thermostat, TR6 NGK plugs, and custom dyno tune. I got the parts put on at White Stallion Innovations and the Custom tune done at Moretto Motor Sports. I would suggest getting it all done at Moretto how ever they have more available staff. Also have Kenny Brown sub frame connectors and Nitto NT05R 315’s getting installed on May 20th. Let me know if you have any other Questions.

I run JG oil in my 565ci blown race motor, it is great oil. I plan to use fr50 in the Shelby at the next oil change.
