I run Mobil 1 10w40 and Mobil 1 Racing 4T (motorcycle) 10w40 in a 50/50 mix (mentioned by LN Engineering). Not for cheapness (the 4T is $11/quart), but as it's a good mix of heavier weights and the 4T adds a nice amount of ZDDP.

I change it often enough to not worry too much. Last oil change the other week showed no metallic particulates on the filter (inside or out) and no cam deviation per Durametric. I haven't been getting any odd noises out of the engine with M1 (refuse to run 0w40).
