Break in oils, zinc and all that jazz

Do you mean older engines or the newer ones? I thought that the zinc was hard on the catalytic converter on newer cars....

Zinc and Phosphorus will screw up converters in short order so it's only for non converter applications. Rusty is right though it should also be used in roller motors - mainly because anyone who spends the money to build a roller motor usually has high performance in mind, with high lift cams and high spring pressures. If you are running a high performance roller motor, use the added zinc oils.
