I'd go with "Patrick's Classic Cars",(SEE "LINKS"),for your break-in oil.They recommend ZDD oil additive,for the solid lifters,as well as Valvoline 5W 50 racing oil,(Zinc Added),for the initial break-in. "New" oils do not contain zinc,like they did when these engines were new. Crucial for cam/lifter break-in. Just to be safe,I add ZDD at every oil change,and I have 100,000 miles on the clock. With no filter,(S.C.O.) engine,I change oil every 1,000 miles.For your carb.,If you have a Rochester B,the rebuild kits are readily available,and cost about $20.00. Good investment.
Hope this helps.
