Any reason why not to run 10w30 synthetic racing oil in my new rebuilt sb400? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I'm running a SB400 with flat tapet hydraulic lifters. I already broke the engine in with regular 10w30 and zddp plus.

Now I'm thinking of running VR1 10w30 synthetic racing oil on a daily basis. I do not have a catalytic converter.

Anyone see any reason why not to run synthetic racing oil? I hate having to order zddp plus when I can buy VR1 off the shelf...
