mellojoe is an unknown quantity at this point
the first oil you sould use in an engine thats been siting is NOT Mobile 1. Use conventional oil. It is a bit thicker and has a tendancy to "coat" the internals. Mobile1 is just TOO slippery to break the engine in. After about 500 miles or so, I'd go with Mobile1. Change the oil after 100 miles. Then change again at 500 miles. That's another reason to go with cheap-o conventional oil: its less expensive since you will be just throwing it out after very few miles.
