During the engine building process, it is important to use an assembly lubricant that will withstand those initial high loads while still being able to dissolve completely with the engine oil once circulation begins. Our EOS, Assembly lube and Cam lube all exhibit these properties. During assembly it is also important to apply assembly lubricant between ALL metal to metal contact. Examples included pushrods to lifters & rockers, rocker tip to valve tip, valve spring to shim/locator, retainer to valve spring, keeper to retainer & valve, cam gears, timing chains, bolts or washers, etc. Use GM EOS to pre-lube metal engine parts, for example soaking lifter bodies, pouring on to cam lobes (prior to cam lube application), soaking oil pump gears and also for pouring over assembled valve train.
It is mandatory to apply Cam Lubricant to the lobes and other metal to metal contact between parts during engine assembly. Once you have applied Formula 1 lube to the cam and other parts, add our Formula 2 Engine Break In Additive; it's a premium additive loaded with lubricants that have been removed from all available engine oils. This combination of lubricants is essential for the break-in process and once again is mandatory. After the break-in you should add our Formula 3 Engine Oil Additive, it contains everything in the break in additive plus an EP additive. It is designed to not only lubricate the engine, but also chemically bond to the metal surfaces and practically eliminate engine wear. Due to the superior lubricating qualities it should be used only after break in to insure proper seating of the piston rings.
