Engine Oil

I have recently seen a number of online discussions about the proper engine oil to use in our Healey's, particularly relating to the ingredient ZDDP. I have been using Valvoline MaxLife 30W, but am currently having the engine rebuilt for my 62 BT7 and, based on what I just read in the Feb. issue of AH magazine, Tech Tips, should start using a multi-weight oil with ZDDP like Valvoline VR-1 20W-50. I would appreciate any comments.
 
Yep ArtQ ,go with: Valvoline VR-1 or Castrol GTX 20W-50 and you will be ok.---Keoke
