Hello Arthur - Phil Irish here, There has been much discussion about too little zinc in most oil for our older engines' needs. A friend just introduced me to Kendall GT-1 High Performance oil. It is specifically for racing/high performance engines, with ZDDP for flat-tappet camshafts. I got mine through O'Reilly stores. Not quite as expensive as full sythetic, but should perform well in our cars. I am doing my yearly oil changes (low milage each year) and plan to use it in all my fleet (4 '56 354" Chryslers, 3 '69 440" Chryslers plus assorted other performance and fun cars). All the Best 300ing!
