thanks, max.  I will look into using this.  I will stop by a flaps to see if it is available locally.  that would be nice.

Mobil1 15w50 also has the recommended zinc level for older engines. Just that one weight is specifically designed for flat tappet engines (you can look it up on their applications sheet). And it is intended as a street oil, not racing oil. 

I started using it in my MGB about 5 years ago.
