Hey Don,
    You also have to consider the design of the engines.  Low ZDDP mostly affects "Flat-Tappet" designs (think Harley Davidson or flat 4 & 6 Porsche). (FYI --  ZDDP=Zinc dialkyldithiophosphate)

Here are some examples:
Valvoline (VV150-6PK) MaxLife 10W-40 Higher Mileage Motor Oil. ...
Pennzoil High Mileage Vehicle Oil. ...
Mobil 1 45000 5W-30 High Mileage Motor Oil. ...
Castrol 06470 GTX 20W-50 High Mileage Motor Oil.

Also, try Allen's suggestions or google high ZDDP oils.

Good luck!

For old school NON-MB (cast iron block) and 1984 technology would shell Rotella 
(or something similar) be best because of the higher zinc content?
