With synthetic oil, there is some leeway in determining the change interval. The decision is based upon a specific engine with a specific driving pattern. One 617 engine may require a change at 5K. Another 617 may be able to go 7K with the same soot percentage.

Only an oil analysis can determine this.

Naturally, if you have unlimited funds, simply put synthetic oil in the engine every 3K and you'll be golden.
