I used Mobil-1 10w30 synthetic to break-in the 380 Magnum crate motor in my
Charger, and stayed with that till the car was sold in April of
'00........recommended to the new owner to use the same.

My '01 Dakota got it at 3,000 miles when I replaced the factory oil and
filter. Mobil -1 10w30 and a M1-204 oil filter.
