I would think that if you're not driving a race car, there would be no reason to by racing oil...

and finish the conversation up with a sonic boom to burst his ears.
Funny you mention that - about 4 years from now I might be able to do that! (Not a joke, the Navy is sending me off to learn how to be a flyboy)

Heh, looks like we threadjacked the OP's question.

So yes, in short, fill your long tube headers with Royal Purple racing oil and it won't take as much power to push it out.
Thank you for your service. Kick some ***

two questions...... Royal Purple motor oil are there any benifits to buying the "RACE" oil as to the regular royal purple oil ,is it better for protection? and which headers? SHORTIES OR LONG TUBES??<-------- a lot of diff opinions on this one,[sm=bicker.gif] if you haveone or the other let me know.......all opinions are appreciated for the future decisions!!thanks[sm=americanasmiley.gif]
just run the factory reccommended weight oil. if you want the synthetic oil, go for it, but dont expect a seat of the pants difference... do not buy the royal purple race oil. its meant for hydraulic flat tappet and mechanical flat tappet race engines that need the extra protection. roller cams do not need the oil it is a waste of money.

Tack up another vote for normal (long tube) headers.
