Same as the rest.
Every 3000 miles using dino.
Up to 10,000 miles using a good synthetic oil. Mobil 1, Redline, etc.

Lot's of people go a lot farther than that using Blackstone reports as a basis for deciding when to change. The 10k mark is my personal limit on Mobil1 Delvac 5-40. I'm sure it could go farther, but I would rather change it out than rely on Blackstone.
Personally I change my oil every 5k using the Delvac as well. I would only go 10k if I was on vacation and putting a LOT of miles all at once on the rig.
