Like he said - but it's a bitch to get up-to-date additive package info.
More so since Bob took sponsorship from Pennzoil.
Let us know if you find anything on zinc/phosphorus in T6 since 2016.
I'd say it's OK because it's the Shell recommendation for old and
hi-mileage diesels.
(but that sure ain't hard documentation)

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.
