I like either the Valvoline VR1 or the Driven oil, have had very good results with both.

I am not an expert in automobiles, but I know several adequate manufacturers. I love Shell and Liqui Moly oils. Although you can try others. Here are examples of popular brands of engine oil.

His recommendation will most likely be for one of Driven's oils but I would email or call Lake Speed Jr. and get a recommendation. In the past I have found him to be very responsive.

Lake is a tribologist.

A while back I had to look this up, from Google:
Tribology is the science of wear, friction and lubrication, and encompasses how interacting surfaces and other tribo-elements behave in relative motion in natural and artificial systems. This includes bearing design and lubrication.
