Read the first post - there's not one but a bunch. If you're running a flat-tappet cam, you need an oil with sufficient ZDDP.
I don't think anyone's going to give you a spring open/closed pressure that is going to be OK with oil that doesn't have that.

Don't use the Rotella, I have a new roller setup to prove it
