Wouldnt bother, just stick a 15w40 in it, if it gets rattly with that use 20w50. Old motors dont need thin oil.

make sure you attach a bucket to teh exhause to colect all teh bypass

0-40 would turn your car into a 2 stroke

but it would sound cool right?

Good ol' Castrol GTX ftw.

20w50 goodness, I always throw it in my older motors.... works a treat. And it's cheap.

Pennzoil Multi Vis was always popular with the Alfa boys in their half knackered 1.5 flat 4's as well.
