You are aware engines have changed drastically in 50 yrs...right? Clearances, OHC, DOHC, VVT, DOD,AFM,mechanical high pressure fuel pumps, variable displacement oil pumps...the list goes on...those are all part of modern lube systems. You can mess with manufacture suggestions all you want.....I would not!
