as long as the oil pump is good use the 10w30 or 10w40in your engine. if you are really worried about the
larger clearances the when you swap oilpans bolt in
a high volume ( not pressure ) oil pump. while you are at it put in a heavy duty oil pump driveshaft as FE's dont like 0 oil pressure. they have a nasty habit of wiping the bearings very quickly when they lose pressure. synthetic gives you a small margin of safety
but i wouldnt depend on that.
This thread, so far...
