Oil is kind of a personal thing but in all my FE engines I have ran Castroil 20 X 50. I also like to run Accel 416 spark plugs and gap them at about .00329/.0035. the original spark plugs were Motorcraft BF 32. I am told the BF 42 is a substiturte but it is a much hotter plug and can cause some detonation problems and possibly cause your coil to fail.
