Most people recommend running conventional "Dinosaur" oil for the first 5000 miles (or at least until the break-in period is over) since it'll help break-in the motor. Then switch to Synthetic.

I used dino-oil for the 1st 4000 miles, then switched to Mobile 1 during my 2nd oil change. (Changed it at 1000 miles when the break-in was over, then again 3000 miles later)
