The engine details are here http://www.fordracingparts.com/downl...6007-A351R.pdf

The clearances don't tell me much, don't know if that's good or not.

The engine is from 2003 and has 10k miles on it.

I won't be racing the car, maybe a 1-2 track days a year, but 95-98% a mix of fast and curvy road driving and cruising.

Ford recommends 20W50, the previous owner used 15W50. On my other thread I got replies from 5W30 over 10W40 and 15W50 up to 20W50, so I'm now completely lost.

And to make since harder, since I live in Europe, I can't get all the American oils.

To put it differently, what oil pressures (at idle and higher up) and oil temperatures should I expect to make sure I'm in the right neighborhood oil-wise.
