Hot Shot's Secret 10w-30 Blue Diamond PAO Diesel Engine Oil - Engine Builder Magazine

Hot Shot’s Secret 10w-30 Blue Diamond PAO Diesel Engine Oil

With improved oxidation, shearing, and thermal stability, Blue Diamond 10w-30 is a more fortified oil than competitive brands that resists breakdown allowing for longer drain intervals.

Hot Shot’s Secret, a leading brand of high performance additives and specialty oils developed with nano-lubricant technology, now expands their Blue Diamond PAO diesel engine oil line with a new 10w-30 offering for heavy-duty use diesel powered vehicles

All Hot Shot’s Secret Blue Diamond Oils utilize 100% poly-alpha-olefin (PAO) Group IV synthetic oil and high-quality Group V esters for a 100% synthetic formula. Previously introduced in two viscosities, 15w-40 and 5w-40, this new 10w-30 viscosity expands the Blue Diamond oil line to meet additional engine oil specifications. 

By using 100% synthetic Group IV and Group V base oils, a robust CK-4 additive package, and the infusion of patented FR3 nano lubricant technology, Blue Diamond PAO 10w-30 oil provides an unsurpassed level of longevity and performance unlike other synthetic oils. Benefits include improved starting, increased power and fuel economy, reduced soot, extended engine life, and reduced friction. 

With improved oxidation, shearing, and thermal stability, Blue Diamond 10w-30 is a more fortified oil than competitive brands that resists breakdown allowing for longer drain intervals; all while reducing engine wear up to 71% better than CJ-4 specifications. Oil change intervals can be extended up to every 50-100K miles if the oil is monitored every 10,000 miles for the Total Base Number (TBN). This oil also requires a very small amount of viscosity improvers to meet the weight specification, allowing it to be formulated with additional additives to improve performance.

Carrillo Forged Pistons and Connecting Rods for Ford 7.3L Godzilla

These pistons are forged from 2618T aluminum alloy and machined on dedicated CNC machine cells to tight tolerances. 2618 aluminum has a lower silicon content than other alloys. That makes the pistons stronger and more ductile—perfect for high-load, high-stress applications like superchargers, turbochargers, or nitrous oxide.  Related Articles – Fluidampr Harmonic Damper from Summit Racing

The factory harmonic damper on your modern GM, Ford, or Mopar V8 are ‘tuned’ to absorb what’s called torsional vibration in the engine’s normal operating RPM range. Performance modifications, particularly ones that increase torque, produce added vibration in an RPM range that the elastomer damper wasn’t designed to handle. That vibration will accelerate component wear,
