I have compiled this webpage for one reason-to sell Amsoil to "Corvair People" at dealer cost + actual shipping.  I will make no attempt to sales pitch you on the products except to mention a few Corvair specific benefits, and offer links to the correct Amsoil Corporate web pages with specifications.

For those of you who find it difficult to FIND Amsoil, or who are too budget minded to pay the costs for this synthetic oil, here's your chance to save a few bucks.


The preferred Amsoil product for your Corvair is their product code AMO 10W-40 100% synthetic oil.   Besides all the benefits of synthetic, this particular formulation has 1378 ppm zinc and 1265 ppm phosphorus, the two ingredients that are disappearing from modern oils, but are generally considered necessary for older cars, flat tappet engines, etc. This formulation of Amsoil also meets the CI-4 requirements and is API approved.  Additional specifications can be found on the Amsoil website by following this link:  http://www.amsoil.com/storefront/amo.aspx  Note that Amsoil publishes more specifications about their products for the general public than any other oil I've found.

The current retail price of this oil is $8.60 a quart, which is the list price as charged at the Amsoil website. They will also add to this UPS shipping, and sales tax. This oil can also be found on some retail store shelves and of course can be ordered from a local Amsoil dealer (who will also add on sales tax). A local dealer may also add on for shipping, as in shipping from the factory or distribution center to him. Many retail outlets charge more per quart. Some Corvair vendors also offer this oil, one has it in their catalog at $8.85 a quart.

I am offering this oil, Amsoil 100% synthetic, 10W-40 as described here to ANY member of what I consider the "Corvair Family" at DEALER COST plus ACTUAL SHIPPING to YOU from ME. Current dealer cost for this oil is $6.75 per quart.  This is YOUR price from me.  I have been an Amsoil dealer since 1979, but have NEVER sold any product at retail.  I'm simply a dealer because I like to purchase for myself wholesale, and I also purchase for my family and friends.  I have used Amsoil in everything I have since 1979, and this particular 10W-40 oil in all my collector cars since then as well.  I live near enough to the factory that I pick up directly from them, so I do not have the costs of getting product shipped to myself.  I'm not trying to make any money at it. I just want to help provide Corvair people with what I believe to be the best product available for our cars.

All my shipping will be done via US Postal Service, as that is what is available to me here in my small town where the PO is half a block away.  You can have your choice of priority mail or parcel post shipping.  You can be pay me via Paypal (preferred) or send a check or MO.  I am going to ship product to customers during the first week of every month. Each month I'll pick up what is needed at the factory, and ship the first week each month. You need to get payment to me before the end of any month to get your product the first week of the next month.  e.g. You want oil the first week in May, get your order to me by the end of April. I need to keep it simple!

The cost of oil is easy. How many quarts x $6.75 each.  Shipping will vary depending on where you are. If you e-mail me with how many quarts you want I will compute the total with both priority and parcel post mail shipping, you pay which you prefer, and that's how I'll ship it.  If you're a long way off (Alaska, Hawaii for example) I'll try to see what I can shove into a flat rate priority box to get you a better price on shipping.  This is all about getting it to you as cheaply as possible.   After I e-mail you back with price with shipping, I'll also include Paypal info and an address if you prefer to mail payment.  For a rough idea figure about 2 pounds per quart (it's a tad over actually) and go to the USPS website, punch in 55709 (my zip code) and your zip code, and it will give you a good ballpark.  It will vary by a few cents due to the "tad more than 2 pounds" and the weight of a box.

Due to several inquiries I must add Amsoil ARO 20W-50 oil to the list as well. Seems many of you prefer a 20W-50 weight.  Amsoil 20W-50 Premium Protection oil ALSO contains plenty of zinc (1379 ppm) and phosphorus (1266 ppm) as we like for our engines.  It also meets specification CI-4.  It costs a bit more than the above oil.  List price is $8.85 a quart, "Corvair Family" price is $6.75 a quart, plus actual shipping via USPS.  Amsoil's spec sheet for this oil is at: http://www.amsoil.com/storefront/aro.aspx if you would like the technical details. Note that Amsoil also has a 20W-50 racing oil, which also has similar zinc/phosphorus levels but is NOT listed as meeting the CI-4 specification.

There are two other Amsoil products that meet the basic requirements for our Corvairs, and offer different weights and varying specifications, still with the right amounts of zinc, phosphorus and meeting CI-4 specs.
Amsoil 15W40 100% synthetic blend diesel/gasoline engine oil. Specs are at http://www.amsoil.com/storefront/pco.aspx.  List price is $6.85/quart "Corvair Family" price dealer cost is $5.15 per quart. Note, this is a "synthetic blend" and gives you *some* of the benefits of a synthetic oil, but not as much as one of the other 100% synthetics.  You can see this yourself in the spec sheets.  However, it far surpasses the performance of ANY petroleum oil.
