Craft recommended/required for warranty Joe Gibbs Hot Rod oil 10w30. The explanation for high zinc, in a roller motor, high spring pressures essentially squeeze the oil out while the motor is off. Zinc clings to the parts, preventing a "dry" start. That's what I was told, anyway. A lot of the guys also use Valvoline high zinc, I believe it is called VR1, not 100% sure.
