My brother had a '77 Ford F-150 with a 360 motor. When the valves rattled. He would put 5 quarts of oil into.

Then drive some more.

The motor had a cracked head, and bad valve guides.

Not original motor in that truck...'77 offered the 351M and 400M in lieu of the 360/390 from previous years.

I know because I own a '77.

I know....splitting hairs.

In my Z I just use Mobil 1 oil and filters.

It might have been older then. I remember it being a 360. And being a rust bucket. The inner front fender wells. Rusted out in no time.
