Your advice not to use synthetic oils seems too broad -- many synthetic oils 
are made for modern cars and therefore have low viscosity -- however, there 
are manufacturers out there that have products which will give a thicker 
film than conventional 20/50 oils -- such as Amsoil or Redline.

I believe their 20/50 oils provide an excellent alternative to the oils 
originally recommended by the manufacturers.
