My thoughts are it definitely won't hurt anything but your wallet.
IMHO (and there are bound to be thousands of opinions) synthetic oil's main benefit is dealing with high temperature service. I run it in air-cooled engines....only.
The oil isn't an improvement in lubricity or dealing with acidity...it meets the same API-SM specs as a conventional petro oil.
So, add this to the fact that the API service classification for most of these engines' lives were far less rigid and the engines are mostly still going, and I get right back to the top line in my post. :)
