I use one of the two quoted. The GMK and blue block are very good. I only use any after run for long term storage and engine assembly.

Red after run oil is marvel mystery oil.....

used it for 10+ years without a problem even for marine engine storage..... they rust 10x faster than car engines due the the higher nitro and water involved. if you dont disassemble and oil a marine engine every race your bearings will be toast in a couple weekends, then the sleeve.... game over

Used a bunch of oils and ricks stuff at rbmods is probably the best for sure .

No petroleum based products with silicone filled cranks for storage , use synthetic lubricants and u should be fine
