Oil weight/brand
What oil weight would be good for .0032 main, .0030 rods? 10w-30?, 20w-50? 7000 ish rpm, normally run valvoline VR1 in previous engines. Thanks.

Thanks, I have used 20w-50 also. Is the "green oil" the Shaeffer brand? I think I read the Kaase pump is higher pressure, std volume???

I see on their website they have a 7000 series and a 9000 series with 20/50 and 5/50 weight, anybody have any favorites?

I have been running the 5/50 Schaeffer 9000, but now they have a 10/30 9000 series.
I am going to give it a shot.

Kaase pump is standard volume and higher pressure; (it may pump a bit more volume because it fills the gerotor from both sides).
