Problem with the synthetic at the moment is my engine has only about 1,000 
miles on a fresh rebuild, put chrome molly on the top ring, so could be 
awhile before broken in, maybe 5,000 miles, it is still using oil, should 
not put snynthetic in before then?  I do not understand how many new cars 
can come out of the showroom floor with synthetic oil. Note that our vendors 
do not recommend synthetic oil until after the engine has broken in 
properly.
