1st oil change coming up! Help

[buckeyecharger]

I bought a 69 charger with its original 383 that was rebuilt to .40 over. It has less than 100 miles on the rebuild. I bought it this last winter and have not driven it on the road yet, but I start it every week or so. I am going to change the oil (it still has the break in oil in it). I am not sure what cam is in it, but its not real exotic.

Here's the question?? What oil should I go with??? With all the posts on new oils and certain cams, I am pretty nervous about what to choose. I have read a little about Z-alt (20w-50) and I am leaning towards using it.

What do you think???

Thanks!

Z-Alt is fine, have heard good things and a few members run it



I used Joe Gibbs for my 440 break in and that worked fine.

Z Alt is good oil , it costs more but so does replacing a cam , the oil is far cheaper

I use Valvoline 20/50 VR1 racing oil with zinc in it.  Been 3 years, cars still runs.
