 Use 20W50 or 15W50 (the 50 is the important bit). Any brand will do 
but if you have added some serious power to the engine, which is causing 
the oil to get hotter, use Valvoline Racing, Duckhams etc, as some other 
brands may thin out a bit to much when hot. I always have this problem 
with Castrol Classic 20W50 which thins out much more than the Duckhams I 
used before, but the latter is hard to get these days. When driving 
prolonged stretches over 80mph the oil pressure drops when using the 
Castrol.
