I have a 83 Mustang Gt, it is mostly stock besides a few bolt-ons. I live in Montana, but spend a lot of time in Cali. I'm just not sure what a good brand and type of oil would be good for my engine as well as a good filter. Can anyone give me some suggestions?

Do a search on motor oil. You'll find 2-3 hours worth of reading that will answer all your questions.

Vegetable oil is good.

Just get Mobile 1 Full Synthetic and Mobile 1 Filter and call it a day. All I run is Mobile 1 in all my cars, including both of FI cars. I've never had any issues and the oil doesn't coke up on turbocharged applications.

except this is a 1983 gt, if it was a brand new motor, hell yeah synthetic all the way, on a beat 5.0 with leaky seals, and worn rings, 10w-30 is fine, maybe even 10w-40 depending where you are

i would go with castoral full synthetic knew a guy with a wrx who got his oil checked by some place after every oil change he ran all kinds of synthetics but the one that came back one of the best was castoral full synthetic the only other that came back a little better was ams oil but its not worth the money for you application
