It's good to know the slotted stuff is not needed for my application.I can also get NOS for about 20 each, if they end up looking trashed. I currently have some earl's speed bleeders and they work good. About the castrol, is the valvoline syn not considered good anymore ? I have about 3-4 quarts of it left, and I have always kept the fluid clean and clear. Is the castrol to have higher dot rating or? I wil also consider ss or the black ss russel lines. especially if they prove to have any cracks.
Everyone states about the seat in on the pads, is it that wild of a recommend from the mfg.?
Absolutely nothing wrong with Valvo Sny. The Castrol LMA is Dot4 but when looking at your fluid choice, you have to look at the boiling points. LMA is 311 degrees wet and 44r dry. I don't have the Valvo specs in front of me.
LMA is on the low side of temps for track applications but will work fine on the street. I use LMA in the lighter weight racercars. Valvoline will work just as good on the street - CoinFlip
