When you say built 2.0 or 2.4, I am assuming you've not built the motor yet? There is a whole process for what oil to use during motor break-in, and longterm use post break-in.

Also, for drivetrain, use OEM Diaqueen. Amsoil and Redline are also good and have had great reviews. I have no clue what you mean by 'regular'.
