I will only have about 12 hours when I change my initial break in 40w Valvoline with Wix filters. Should I go to Mobil 1 or stay with the conventional weight Valvoline?

I'll stick with what works for me, I don't want extended time between my oil changes, I like to keep an eye on what's going on inside.
I bet I get more fuel dilution more than anything .Same will happen with synnthenic.So you would prob change just as often

Thanks all, went with the Mobil1 15-50w..
O'reilys only had the Wix 1061R racing filter in stock so went with that. Counter guy said it was just a tad taller filter otherwise the same as the 1060R.. I hope he was correct!
