A lot depends on the mileage, but favourites include Mobil 1 15W50, Silkolene Pros S 15w50 , Millers 10W60.

I used Castrol RS 10W60 once, it broke down so easy it was untrue, don't use it now,
mobil 1 as it's easy for me to get delivered, my fave is sunoco racing but trouble getting it.

Silkolene Pro S 10w-50 if it's modified, if not the Pro S 5w-40 would be good

Cheers
