<VV> EOS Oil Additive

[BBRT]

What about for initial build and start up? I have normally, after using cam 
break in lube on cams and lifters and bearings, poured oil right in on top 
of crank, etc before final button up. Are you recommending to not use STP 
for the initial start up?  I understand your comments for the longer term.
