It's funny how T6 was a big favorite here until they were late show on the magic Ford list. Now its PBE. I always heard the qualifiers were the amount of phosphorus (above 1000ppm) to get the nod from Ford.

Anybody know if PBE has more than T6, which is around 1050ppm? I have used Rotella products since the old IDI F350.

I haven't seen a virgin oil sample of pbx to say what the number is but I can tell you I did an oil analysis of pbx at 3500 miles and it had 1134. Most of my 5k samples come back between 1050 and 1100.

My factory oil came back at 960 @5k.

This what you're looking for? 1017 ppm P after OCI -similar to T6 5w40.

I also do 5k changes, was planning on sending in a sample to Blackstone at this change. Curious to see what the T6 comes back with.........
