That particular question can only be answered when we know the condition of the engine. If the bearings are still in close tolerance you can use a 10W30 or even lighter viscosity.
On the other hand, if the bearings are worn you should use a 15W40 or even possibly heavier.
The only way to know is to run the engine, get it hot and watch the oil gauge. If the oil pressure drops too much at an idle, go to a heavier (thicker... higher numbers) oil.
In general you want to use the lowest viscosity that you can while maintaining good oil pressure.

The Chevy V8s are pretty interchangeable. Just make sure that the year of the engine is the same as the vehicle you are putting it in. Also if the Camero wasn't a V8 to begin with, you will have a lot of electric work and a computer change to go with all of the other mods.
