I use Lucas Hot Rod Oil. It has a high zinc % (.21).

I've been running VR-1 or Diesel (napa/Valvoline) for years. But seeing my motor was an '01 crate not sure its required. But old habits die hard.

I was using a Lucas oil suppliment with Castrol GTX but they quit making it so now it looks like I gotta switch to Valvoline VR1, which is OK with me. But the parts houses around here only carry 20-50 and straight 50 weight. but I'll do what it takes, especially after wiping out 2 cams in 3 years ...LOL

no one here cartriesthe Lucas hotrod oil (I never heard of it until now)
