I'd look into replacing the stock springs also. Get the proper rate for your weight and application and you'll be a happy camper.
Normally the spring manufacturer will have a suggestion as to the viscosity and brand they like. Surprisingly, the actual viscosity of the same weight fork oil can differ significantly from one manufacturer to another. Typically it's 15 or 20 weight, measuring from the top of the tube with the forks empty and compressed instead of using a measured amount.
If you find someone that really know how to set-up the forks I'd follow their recommendation for springs/oil/amount.
