Is 10W/50 engine oil available these days? What oil are most forum members using in their 71-81 spiders? Should synthetics be avoided for these vehicles? I don't think they would benefit much from the advanced chemistry and the potential for leaking seals is probably real....
Where does one find 10W50 motor oil?

There are a lot of opinions and preferences regarding oils. I would encourage you to do a search, and perhaps post some questions in one of the existing discussions. To get you started, here are some threads which you may find informative:
- Motor oil with ZDDP (zinc) for flat tappet engines: synthetic vs. conventional
- changes in oil formulations and classic cars
- Oils currently available with high ZDDP content
- Castrol SynTech Oil Sale
- Shell 20W-50 vs. GTX
- Fall Oil Weight ???
- Mobil 1 Oil Comment
- AGIP Oil
