Hey guys, I know doing a UOA with only 3k miles may be silly but I wanted to run one as a practice as this is my first ever UOA.
I have no idea what any of this means but the report said everything looked great. I refilled with Mobil 1 EP 5w20 and was planning to run 10K miles. However, the guys at Blackstone didn't recommend going that far so quickly (see below).....Maybe they didn't realize I changed to full synthetic but I'm pretty sure I wrote that on the slip....Please give me your thoughts on this. Any other tips are appreciated
Thanks in advance!

From Blackstone:
ANDREW: Running the next fill close to 10,000 miles is a bigger jump than we'd like to see you take, but
we certainly think this engine is ready for a longer run than this. Averages show typical wear for the 5.0L
Coyote engine after an interval of about 5,800 miles. Wear is low on this shorter run, and that's impressive
for an engine with such low miles. Normally we see lingering wear-in (high metals, silicon) at this point, but
you've been able to clean that up already. Our suggestion is about 6,000 miles next, but we tend to be a bit
conservative. Very good report!
Thanks in advance!
