I'd only mix in half a quart each OCI, just to keep the oil pump happy. Nonetheless, it'll be fine. My '08 3.3L Chrysler takes 5w20 & I always replace a quart with 5w30 or 0w20, depending on the season. My '06 3.8L Buick takes 5w30, I typically replace a quart with 10w30 since I live in the desert. Doing so, in combination with only using Purolator & ACDELCO (personal preference) filters & changing them every 3k as recommended, keep my engines happy with their age
Get MANN ????oil filter
Also the K&N oil filter is superior to HD’s despite the recent upgrade. The K&N has a better flow.
I'd do oil change as close to leaving as possible with full synthetic oil. Look into oil filter status after that long.
K&N HP1002 because it has a hex on the end that makes taking it off through the wheel well really easy. Don't even have to jack up the car, just remove the rear splash guard.
Oil filters: Mobil 1 Extended Performance
I just go to the amsoil website and get the oil that they suggest, I've taken cars well over 200k with that advice. Don't overthink it. If you don't want to use amsoil for the oil, at least see if they have a low micron oil filter.
That's a poor quality filter on there, last oil change must have been at a quickie lube. People will argue left and right about which filter, but the fram gold XG series filters with the grippy paint on them are great, and usually under 10 bucks.
The cheap-ass Fram (and parallel quality) filters will split right open.
Last time I tried fram the filter collapsed and blew my oil cooler seals in under 1500mi
