Breaking in a new motor is both an exciting and nerve racking experience. With oil being stripped of several critical elements due to government regulations there are few truly good options left for lubricants to help your new motor make it out of the box alive. Luckily, Comp Cams has teamed up with Endure Performance Lubricants to release a new heavier weight break in oil to supplement the 10W30 they currently offer.
The oil is ZDDP-fortified and have been tested long and hard by the team at Comp Cams to ensure maximum performance during the break-in period. According to Comp the oil helps improve the surface mating of valve train components, a critical element in the successful break-in of flat tappet cams.

COMP
Cams® 15W50 Engine Break-In Oil
Performance
leader adds new 15W50 lubricant designed specifically for use by professional
engine builders during break-in of new and rebuilt engines
With the current
government regulations, today’s oils are missing many of the critical
ingredients needed for engine protection. Engine builders and performance
hobbyists are being forced to add extra protection additives in order to
maintain engine safety and performance – but not anymore. Engineers at COMP
Cams® and Endure Performance Lubricants™ have expanded their line of automotive
lubricants to include 15W50, as well as the original 10W30, weight oils. Both
popular weights are ZDDP-fortified to provide maximum protection during initial
break-in.
Heavily tested
and proven by the COMP Cams® R&D team, these advanced lubricants deliver
maximum engine life. They do so by improving the surface mating of valve train
components (especially flat tappets), rotating assembly, rod journals, piston
rings, valve guides and other vital areas of the engine. The proprietary
formulas of both the 15W50 and 10W30 oils include optimum amounts of critical
additives ZDDP (Zinc & Phosphorus), Molybdenum, detergents and high grade
base oil.
The
mineral-based COMP Cams® Engine Break-In Oils are fully-formulated and require
no additives or supplements. In addition, both popular weights are fully
compatible with gasoline, methanol and high octane racing fuels. They can be
purchased in single quarts, cases of twelve quarts or pallets of eighty-four
cases.
