Where to buy Redline sythetic motor oil?

Just wondering if anyone knows of some good prices out there. I'm looking to buy about 15 gallons of Redline for myself and a few others, and that's the the point where every penny counts.

I'm trying to find 5w40, and so far the best price I've seen is $7.75 a quart. Anyone out there know of better deals on Redline motor oils? I searched the forums but didn't find anything better than what I've found so far. I can't believe that's the best anyone has to offer though.

Try http://www.gruppe-s.com/Brand/RedlinePage.htm 99.00 a case shipped so probably cheaper than 7.75 + shipping. If you give them a call they will most likely do better on the price if you tell them how much you're after.

It's for a lot of guys running turbos, I was just looking to buy to get discount pricing on a large order. The 5w40 gives the best oil pressure for their cars. Since 10w30 is really easy to find, I figure any place I can get 5w40 from will have 10w30.

Thanks for the link Ike, I'll check them out.

What a mess with these oils.... ok manual says i should use low-viscosity oil in winter and in summer high-viscosity... in summer i use synthethic , so in the winter i should use half-synthetic or regular ?

I've got 2 cases (24 quarts) of 10W30

You don't state your location, but I'll guarantee if you're local to me you won't be able to score Redline for what I listed it for.

Just use AMSoil 5w30 and don't worry about it. It costs the same as Mobil 1 and it's a hell of a lot better -- as good as Redline, even.

Just a hunch, but seeing the OP posted this 4 years ago I would hope he found some and changed his oil by now.
