RE: smoking 390

Yikes! The only reason I went with synthetic is because the rebuild mechanic told me to. This engine was actually rebuilt 2 years ago, and I seem to remember that the mechanic had me using a different oil initially, but am sure it was also synthetic; maybe just a different weight. Sorry to be so vague, but its been awhile. Is there any harm in switching oils now, after about 700 miles post rebuild? What weight would be recommended? Also, if this is in fact a break-in problem, is it reasonable for it only to be visibly affecting the drivers side? Either way, it sounds like I definately need the restrictors. Again, thanks in advance for the help.
This thread, so far...
