Description

AGIP Novecento Racing 10W-40 is a synthetic engine oil from the Novecento line for high-performance classic cars competing in sporting events on roads and racing circuits. Its additive package is designed to protect against wear under competition loads.

The oil is rated API SL; the list contains no car maker approvals and no claims against their specifications.

Typical figures: kinematic viscosity 99 mm²/s at 40 °C and 14.9 mm²/s at 100 °C, viscosity index 156, pour point -24 °C, flash point 220 °C.

Application

High-performance classic cars taking part in sporting events on roads and circuits.

Worth knowing

Among Eni 10W-40 oils, the same API SL class is held by Eni i-Base professional 10W-40, which adds the diesel class API CF. Its typical figures hardly differ from this oil’s: 14 mm²/s at 100 °C against 14.9 mm²/s here, viscosity index 152 against 156, pour point -27 °C against -24 °C, flash point 220 °C in both. A few other 10W-40 oils from the brand lack SL: Eni i-Sint 10W-40 carries API SN, ACEA A3/B4 and MB 229.3 approval, while Eni Gas Special 10W-40 and Eni i-Sint professional 10W-40 have API SN and CF, the latter also claiming compliance with MB 229.1, VW 501.01 and VW 505.00.

Eni itself calls this a “synthetic technology” lubricant and singles out resistance to oxidation among its advantages: its properties are meant to stay unchanged throughout its working life. The article on the API SL class gives the engine age limit API now sets for SL and the classes introduced since.
