First oil change questions

[VTSTOMPER]

Four part question.

1) can/should I go to syn oil on the first oil change?

2) When I go to syn I am going to be using Moble 1, but I am unsure of the grade I might use...I think 5W-30? Is that what most of you all use? I will be doing it all myself because god gave me hands and I am not afraid to get them dirty!

3) call me old skool, but I like to change my oil every 3000 Miles - no matter what. Are any of you going the longer distances that the other oils say you can? I just cannot bring myself to do it.

4) what is the best filter to use, I have used WIX for years because they are better than most.
