Bought This.
I picked up this oil as it looked perfect but am still wondering if the Rotella 5w-40 synth would be better. I am in Ontario Canada so the cold months are upon us. Anyways here is what I bought. Castrol Edge with syntec 5W-50 full synthetic. It says meant for older cars , high Zinc content especially suited for older flat tappet engines. api service SN,SM,SL. TY for any help, currently has rotela dino 15-40 put that in to give it a bit of a cleaning cycle. cheers all, be safe and hope to hear from you.

I've tried three different oils recently, in an effort to evaluate oil pressure subsequent to the oil pump replacement:
-Mobil 1 15W50 Racing Oil (synthetic)
-Kendall 20W50 GT-1 High Perf Oil (semi-synthetic)
-Shell Rotella T 15W40 (non-synthetic)
Now, I'm not in a "cold" weather environment (Central Calif.), but all seem to perform about the same wrt oil pressure and contain higher levels (1200 ppm) of ZDDP; I'm hoping the Rotella will help out with top end component cleaning.
