I used Castrol GTX 10w40 at first then switched to Castrol Synblend . I also have used Shell Rotella 15w 40 too as its tough . Any major name brand of dino oil will work . After its broke in you can use a synthetic blend or full synthetic oil . Change it 250 miles with new build , again at 500 miles , then every 1,00 miles .
With new engine I would also put on a new drive belt
