Hey everyone: The BB is getting it's first oil change since it arrived. I'm thinking a good organic oil would be appropriate for this vintage motor with 121K on the clock.
The service records I have are not specific about what has been put in before.
I use Syn in every other car but I think it might be overkill and make it leak even more.

This should be fun!
