I ran across this recently while reading up on some opinions and articles by our good friends at well respected and well known LGMotorsports. (Louis "Lou" Gigliotti)

Probably will have some bearing on what oils we choose for our style of driving and the mods we have:

Great thread Colin. I've been reading quite a few articles lately about the lack of zinc in new oils with much interest as I have an old engine with a flat tappet cam and would like to keep it a while longer.
