sedsy Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 OK i have finally got round to calling up one of my old lubricant suppliers that i used in my Land Rover maintenance days!!! I can get all kinds of engine oil but firstly i need to know the general type needed. I thought of having 2 categories.. Track and Road use. Please feel free to comment, advise and state what type, viscosity etc etc (semi,full?) and i will promptly get back with prices. I aim to sell in 20 litre cans but this is not set in stone yet.
