As someone said you do not want to use ZDDP in a fuel injected engine, as it kills O2 sensors.

50 weight oil is for engines that were built with loose tolerances, in full out racing type usage.

Look in your manual. I would bet Chevy called for 10-40 in the 68 327.

I think Ford called for 10-30 in the 95 5.0.

Do as you want. I wouldn't run 50W in any factory built engine, unless the manual expressly called for it.
