Walmart carries a brand of oil called Accel. It states it is for engines 88 and older, with an SF rating. I'd like to run something with high zddp levels in my 86 w/flat tappets. Any input would be appreciated.

I'm not sure when roller cams and lifters came in third gen engines, but I know my 86 IROC has hydrolic flat tappets.
