The timing in chain should be good since the motor was rebuilt 3000 miles ago. So i dont think ill need these things.

Any suggestions on a good break in oil? Thats what i still have to buy oil/coolant.
Someone told me rotella is high in zinc also mixed with lucas is good for cam break in. Is this true?
