Oil grade decisions

[62 Comet]

I'm just curious for my next oil change in my 200, currently I've got 10w-30 in it right now and average out probably at 30-32 psi when hot, not sure if that good pressure, close to 40 on start-up. Any other grades recommended i'll be glad to hear em'

8) 10w30 is fine for most applications. when these engine were new, the standard weight was a straight weight oil usually 30wt. as long as you have at least 20psi oil pressure you are good to go. the rule of thumb is 20psi minimum, and 10psi per 1000rpm.
