Better tap your savings account, 55 gallons ain't a cheap date by a long shot. I buy all my lubricants and grease in bulk. It gets delivered too. The grease I use is 1500 bucks a drum (150 pound open head) and you still need a grease pump to get it out.I've been looking for some T-6 also. Maybe we will have to get creative and collectively buy a barrel of oil and divide it up.
I buy oil for my TDI's from VW. If I buy 20 liters at a time and bring my own containers they have given me up to $2/liter off of their regular price. They fill my containers out of their bulk totes. The bonus is that I don't have to pay any environmental fees and I don't have numerous containers to dispose of.
