when slick 50 first came around i gave it a try and was impressed and have been using it in every vehicle since then. after adding the slick 50 my idle speed increased 200 rpm's and i had to adjust the idle screw to get t back to where it was before. so it definitly reduced the amount of friction. i was driving a 1977 thunderbird that i had swapped in a 1970 police interceptor 429 engine that i bought at a junkyard for 75 bucks. the odometer showed 10 thousand mies, so i figured it had 110 thousand on it, the car was wrecked in the back real good. so i doubt it was 210 thousand. i put a new timing chain and oil pump(at dad's insistence) in it before dropping it in. i put another 150 thosand on it and it still ran great. i sold the motor to a guy and he rebuilt it and dropped it into a jacked up four wheel drive truck. and yes it ran good, nothing like the torque from a big block.
