Shell Rotella T synthetic has a good zinc content and is recommended by Comp Cams. If you are running a flat tappet cam, DO NOT use modern passenger car oils!

A Comp XE282HR would be a comparable cam in a hydraulic roller.

RPM is limited to 6,500 max if that is an issue. There are custom grinders who will grind a HR cam that can rev higher. But to do it, they have to back off the ramp rates, so you somewhat defeat the purpose.
