Agree with the above, Millers 10w40 will be spot on for the job.

Just to confirm that it should be the CRO version. Take a look:-
Millers Oils - A World Leader In Lubrication Technology look under Motorsport.
When you say re-built, I assume that includes new pistons, re-bore (at least de-glaze?)

If you use Millers make sure it is the mineral running in oil as they do two types.
Their synthetic running in oil is designed for dyno running in.
