Ok-
I know we just finished a thread on this about a week ago, but there was one 
thing I could not find in it-
Can anyone recommend a BRAND and tell me where to buy the oil that should be 
used for breaking in the Herald/Spitfire engine?  From my understanding of the 
outcome, it should be about a 30 weight mineral oil. What the h... is that 
exactly? I don't wish to put lamp oil into my engine, and find I was wrong... ;)

Also, what is the best oil to use after break in? I have just put a good bit of 
money and effort into the engine rebuild(not to mention the whole car) and I 
want it to "live long and prosper"(insert funny hand sign here)

Beaming up(and rather silly at 5:15 am)
