2. Increased volatility causes increased oil consumption and emissions.
3. Oil is first heated to 250° C for a period of 60 minutes.
4. Air is drawn through the container holding the oil sample to remove vapor.
5. After 60 minutes, the remaining oil volume is weighed.

Hot Cool-Blue Stang Project Car On Display At SEMA

Hot Cool-Blue Stang Project Car On Display At SEMA

FREE Amsoil Catalog 

With the 2010 SEMA show just days away, the AMSOIL/Muscle Mustangs and Fast Fords 2011 Mustang GT is lookin’ good. This special project Mustang that will be on display in the Source Interlink Media booth during the 2010 SEMA show in Las Vegas.
In just two months time, the MM & FF staff transformed the Kona Blue ’11 GT from a stock Mustang with 412hp, into a street-legal, drag race monster capable of over 650 horsepower and 10-second quarter-mile times. The new 5.0L Ti-VCT V-8 has been enhanced by Blow-By Racing with a Ford Racing Performance Parts supercharger kit with a custom tune. Then they installed a 175hp shot of nitrous from NOS in our own SIM Tech Center. Of course the powertrain benefits from AMSOIL fluids throughout. And with more air and gas going in, they installed Kook’s latest headers and exhaust system with catalytic converters and slick tail pipes.

Along with the go, the AMSOIL/MM&FF GT has plenty of show. Paul Holman of Visualfxpaint.com, sprayed the Roush wing, front fascia, and Cervini’s hood with a racy scheme including bright blue “real fire” effects. Amazingly, all the logos, colors and stripes on the body are hand painted!
With the paint complete, the GT was back in our SIM Tech Center in Tampa where the rest of the work was completed. The SEMA Stang rides on new Weld Magnum wheels with Moroso and Nitto rubber meeting the road. Strange brakes and coil-over struts compete the front suspension and BBR and BMR parts make up the rear suspension. There is even detail under the hood and a slathering of modification to the interior as well including Corbeau seats, a Maximum Motorsports roll bar, twin carbon fiber nitrous bottles and much more.

As mentioned in a previous entry, AMSOIL is gearing up for the 2010 SEMA show armed with several new products for display in the New Product Showcase (NPS). The NPS features new products introduced throughout the year and selects winners for the ‘Best of’ award in various categories. An added benefit, however, is having this platform to showcase the progress AMSOIL makes each year with every new product development. Below are the three additional submissions into this years’ New Product Showcase. Check back for updates on the 2010 SEMA show here in the first week of November.
AMSOIL Engine & Transmission Flush
Introduced in April 2010, AMSOIL Engine & Transmission Flush helps restore fuel economy and increase operating efficiency in gasoline & diesel engines and in automatic transmissions. It safely cleans sludge and build-up, thereby promoting lower operating temperatures and reduced oil consumption. The new product is potent enough to work in just one treatment, yet safe enough to use at every oil change. AMSOIL Engine & Transmission Flush is easily disposable with waste oil and compatible with both conventional and synthetic lubricants.
AMSOIL Synthetic Fuel Efficient Automatic Transmission Fluid
Many of today’s vehicle manufacturers are now calling for a low-viscosity transmission fluid, and AMSOIL answered the call in 2010. Formulated with friction modifier additives, AMSOIL Synthetic Fuel Efficient ATF provides excellent friction durability. It is fully-fortified with anti-wear/extreme pressure agents, giving drivers peace of mind for up to 100,000 miles in normal service or 50,000 miles in severe service. It provides outstanding performance and protection, even in severe operating conditions.
AMSOIL Synthetic SAE 60 Motorcycle Oil
AMSOIL Synthetic SAE 60 Motorcycle Oil is recommended for early-model air-cooled V-Twin engines where a 60-weight motor oil is specified. SAE 60 motor oils are commonly used in Harley-Davidson® Knucklehead, Panhead, Shovelhead and big-bore motorcycles. The result of extensive research, AMSOIL Synthetic SAE 60 Motorcycle Oil was introduced to the masses in July 2010. This new viscosity fills an important slot in our motorcycle oil lineup, featuring superior wear protection and heat resistance. It’s designed for those who demand the absolute best in lubrication for their motorcycles.
