Ah, that assume the car consumes oil, Redline simply puts more than the newer SN oils allow. I would have to look at my notes on my home PC as to exact amount in their oil. I believe when they went to SN oils they clipped the phosphorous and zinc at 800 PPM. The SM and older allowed a lot more.

Here are some numbers for RL 5W-40 circa 2018, so lots of moly and good slug of ZN, P, and CA. Love the low NOACK, so this oil doesnt evaporate and poison the Cats, many oils are 10-15% NOACK. Red Line is the go to oil on the Ram Forums to quiet the hemis. Huge thread on it. My two hemis, 5.7 and 6.4 dont tick but decide to run the Red Line 5w-30 in the 5.7 at 60K miles and the 5w-40 in the SRT. they run very quiet and I noticed that in my Jeep. Expensive but a true synthetic, not the Group III stuff many use.

But run what makes you happy.
