You should use only water soluble lubricants or it will cause problems with

leave a residue that you cannot see sometimes.

I have used Tom Langdon's mini GM HEI for over 2 years now. Not sure what
type of vehicle was the donor, but it looks good (small cap vs the old large
cap) and has not failed me yet. Tom Langdon has some excellent quality
upgrades to our ole chevy's. Check out his stuff at:
