Default castrol 10w60???

Has anyone used this oil, i cam upon it when i had to change oil in a customers bmw roadster z4, was the oil recommended for this aplication, and could only buy it at the bmw dealership, my local auto parts store could not order it, i have a 402 stroker all new, they said they built it on the loose side and i have less oil pressure than my stock ls1, it's still good oil pressure but i would like to see more, on my next oil change i have 6L of 10w60 castrol to go in it. what do you's think?

how loose? what are your main bearing clearances? I have 2.7 to 3 main clearances and use Valveoline 20-50w VR1 with 60psi at idle. This using the Melling oil pump.
