When I was building racing engines, I just used a mixture of half STP and half #30 engine oil on bearings, and dipped pistons and rings into straight #30 oil before assembling.
Never had a problem.
In fact, in all the years I raced, we only had two engine failures during a race. One was a fancy double roller racing timing chain. We went back to a plain old Chevy chain and no more timing chain problems.
The other was an engine blew and we put enough of it back together to determine a connecting rod cap bolt had broken. After that, we never torqued rod cap bolts more than twice. We'd install new bolts, reuse them once, and pitch them.
