I thought that they had taken much or most of the Zinc out of the Rotella?

I buy the Zink additive from Edelbrock and throw it in with my Valvoline 20W-50.

I just order a few bottles from Summit so they are here ready for my Oil Changes for my classics.

Check the label. The zinc content is decreasing.
