I'm getting ready to rebuild the 250 I6 for my truck. Right now it's stripped down bare. I need to get it to the machine shop to hot tank it.

My question is, what would be the best type of oil to put in it when i get it built? It most likely wont run much for a while after it's reassembled. I would like to get it put back together though so I can get some of the parts out of my way. Also, so I don't lose anything important. Is there anything different I need to do or add to it so it will sit on the motor stand and not get ruined?
