It sure says in the binder.
Section 6 page 15:
Engine
The recommended oil is Ford Oil, whose viscosity rating is SAE 10/40. This is suitable for all ambient temperatures which the RS200 will encounter.
Having said that, this is 1986 information... I'm sure there are options out there that may far outperform this particular oil specification... Maybe another owner will chip in on what they use nowadays on their road car?
