Just rebuilt a forged CA, will hopefully get to turn the key for the first time tonight but wondering what is the best oil to use for running it in? Thanks

Just a decent quality mineral oil, something like Fuchs Titan Formula would probably be ok
i used millers competition run in oil did 50 miles dropped it put more in and did 500 and then dropped it

same - used the millers running in competition oil - avoid the other millers running in oil that's thicker, it's too thick for the lifters on the CA (Petrol Pete found this out).
