I run valvoline vr1 20/50 in my 454 BBC. You can find it at your local auto zone. It has the zddp (zinc) in it. But as far as which weight you should run depends on your clearances in your motor.

A Ford need any high quality 40W or 20w50 oil with ZINK, VR-1 valvoline and Kendal GT-1 are both good.

Take a look men think the Delo 400 is now ZINK free.
