The Pennzoil 25-50 GT has NO zinc listed on its data sheet, and claims to be compliant with the current API SJ standards.

So what oil is good for us to use in our street motors. I have always used Castrol 10w-40. No good anymore?

This is supposedly a real concern on engine/cam break in...but I use Valvoline Racing all the time which has a good amount in it..GM engine oil supplement also is supposed to have plenty of zinc but don't quote me on it.
