Dan:  I was not referring to the GM product; however, John Snyder says,
 "...I am using a pint of GM EOS with every oil change.   It has a good 
amount of zinc..."

David Navone of Navone Engineering (ZddPlus) stated for our 7 quart oil 
changes , "The answer
depends on your driving conditions and time between oil
changes.... With most daily drivers, approximately 50% of the ZDDP
molecule depletes after 1000 miles of driving. If you change your oil
every 3000 miles, and tend to drive in a sporty manner, I'd recommend
two bottles of ZddPlus per oil change  (his product
that comes in 4 ounce bottles). This will insure an adequate
level of ZDDP..".

Someone else responded to my request for info but I can not find that 
e-mail.  I do not recall the product name but it came in a 10 ounce bottle 
and he recommended one bottle.

Sorry I can't be of more help.
