Default quick question

Hey, I know this is beat to death. Just too much data floating around. What would be the best, or a great choice for oil in a 2006 MT Z. Got the Mobil 1 oil burning motor replaced with the V2. Have around 3500 miles on the new motor total miles of 19K. I live in Florida (warm weather) and I am NA. I would like to go synthetic, or should I wait for more miles to be put on the V2. I was looking into the 0W30 German Castrol (shows good numbers on the UOA), but am hesitant to put 0W30 in when the dealer says to use 10W30. Thanks a lot guys

I don't think it really makes a difference.
Hard break in, soft break in. Dino or synthetic.
It seems more like luck of the draw on the REVUP. The engine either is a dud or it isn't.
