I run rotella 15w40 in both my k5's. Got around 124,000 on my 75 model (350) and 10,000 on my 78 (350) after a rebuild when it had 165,000 on it. Ive never had any complaints.
 
It's best to run the smallest cold/hot viscosity ratio (10W30) that you can get away with. The viscosity modifiers that they add to get a big ratio are not the best stuff to be pumping through your engine if you don't need to. Stick to the manufacturer's recommendations.
