I watched this a few weeks ago, and he pours it in the oil filter housing, even though going in at the oil port mix's too, just wondering if it matters
Thanks for posting Troy

Have to remove the standpipe to truly get the rev-x straight into the HPOP reservoir.

That's a concern I have with the "snake" oils. The roller lifters are supposed to "roll" by design, what if some of that stuff makes the rollers slide or skip across the cam lobe?

No bueno, ya know? Just something I ponder.

It does seem Archoil works better overall than Rev-X.
