before I start this is not a for sale post if it gains intrest I'll start a new topic in the relevent section..
Basicly we were on a big job 12months ago and a delivery came with 5x 20 litres of "aeroshell turbine oil 560" we signed for it thinking it was for the generator lads we were working with at the time as they wernt about..
Now we've been called back to do the shit bits like finish the drawings etc and it's still here and we've been asked to shift it as it's taking up space..
I had a quick look on the net to find out about it and it's worth $340 a barrel! So we have over $1500 dollers worth of oil to shift!
Take a look on google ad see what you think, type in the oil it's the first result that comes up, I cannot post a like as I'm in my phone.. I'll update this when I get home.
Would it be suitible for race engines or to use on track days as this is obviously a VERY high quality oil?
If so I'll stick it up on eBay and the for sale section but for now what are your thoughts?
Cheers matty

It's the same as this used by the forces.
I'm guessing it's probably not worth using(but only guessing) as the loads involved in piston engines are much higher than that involved in turbine engines.. Find someone who uses it and flog it to them at half price.

er not sure I'll find out it's only been stood for a year or so
I have no idea about it at all. But if piston engines go under more stress it won't be any good, i was thinking if Is good for fighter jets it be more than enough for a crappy ford
