I used Comp's break in oil. If you were closer I'd sell you my remaining 6 quarts of it. You can use regular oil if you dump in a bottle of flat tappet additive. Rotella T DID have the proper ZZDP levels but that is no longer the case. I believe VR1 is the only "off the shelf" stuff that's good to go.

Do not half ass the flat tappet break in. If you wipe a lobe you're dicked.

B4C, check out veno's post on "the other site" ;D it's got what he needs.
