FL whats the best motor oil to use?

what is the best motor oil to use on the rotary engine
i've heard everything from mineral oil to removing the oil spraying into the combustion chamber
to adding oil to fuel like the pettit pro-tek

i'm so confused
whats the best oil to use without removing the oil sprayers from the combustion chamber?

Plain o'l Castrol GTX is what I've been putting in my FD for years.
In Florida's weather, 20W/50 will work great.
