Hi Tony.
I have a 74 Jensen Healey and when purchased it was recommended to use 
Castrol 20 50 which I did for 75,000 miles.  No problems.  At one point I 
accidently purchased a case of 10 40 and used it with no problems.  So my 
gut response would be, shouldn't be a problem for one round.  I change oil 
at 2000 miles along with the oil in the filter.  Then change oil and filter 
at 4000 miles.
However if you really want to become an expert in the field of oil try this 
site.  http://www.supramania.com/aehaas/
Hope this helps,
Clif
