What oil do you guys use in these? I'm leaning toward Delo 400 or Shell Rotella.

Bill, my concern is the reduction of zinc in the modern oils and the bevel gear driven camshaft in the Bearcat. Diesel engine oil contains more zinc than auto oil but I heard they were talking about a reduction in it also. I just want to make my engine last as long as possible!
