I've had no issues running straight Lucus. It actually made the whole engine alot quieter and runs alot smoother. The guys at Autozone recommended it. Working great for me.

OneFine89, you do realize that racing oil is called racing oil for a reason, right? i'm pretty sure i've read that it's not meant to use for everyday driving conditions...

I was hoping you meant the lucas oil, but ya dont listen to everyone at autozone, i used to work there and a few know theres tuff but whoever told you to use straight additive is wrong. 10 30 is whats recomended for all the 5.0's. I use 10 30 castrol syntec, Unlock The Power B*tch
