Rotella T6 synthetic is a car / diesel oil that will have enough ZDDP for flat cam followers. 
the best thing is to go to bobistheoilguy.com and look for a recent Virgin oil Analysis or send one in yourself, because manufacturers will change their additives without telling anyone.

  My 73 came with an engine with maybe 1,000 miles on a high quality
  build.  I plastigauged the bearings and the clearances were on the high
  side.  The cam has a 6,500 redline and flat tappet lifters.  Seems
  typical?  Is 5W-40 about right?  I love synthetic oil, but does this
  have the additive for flat tappet lifters?

  Good choices for a roller.
  In Rotella, I do prefer the T6 synthetic 5W-40.
