Currently I'm running mineral 15W-40 oil during the break-in period and sceduled my first oil / filter change after 1000 km.
Question: 
A) Should I change oil and filters with new mineral oil untill the rings are properly seated?
B) Should I switch to synthetic Mobil 1 15W-50 or is it too soon?
I've read 1000 km is not enough to seat the rings and switching to synth will prolong the break-in period?? 
FYI: I'm breaking the engine in "hard".
Thanks again.
