First oil change

I have a new 6.0 motor I'm doing first 15hr service on any advice on oil an filter. Also have to do oxbox oil change if any one know oil viscosity rating that would be awesome
 
My new OX required Lucas full synthetic 75w-140 which we ordered from Summit Racing as my local parts stores did not have that exact spec. https://lucasoil.com/products/gear-oil/synthetic-gear-oil/lucas-sae-75w-140-synthetic-gear-oil

The oil for the engine should be based on builders clearance specs. If stock a full synthetic 5w-30 is what my Camaro LS3 uses, if it has a lot of time/miles on it a 10w-30 may be a suitable choice. We run Amsoil in the LS3 but there are plenty of good choices out there in todays market place. I would stick to a 25-50 hour change cycle based on how the oil looks and your style of ride. Mrs. Branch (352)797-9910 is an Amsoil dealer and stocks most of the products in the shop if your local to them. (Area SR50 / US41)

As far as a oil filter goes we use the NAPA Platinum or K&N on the LS3. NAPA is made by WIX
If you watch the NAPA web site they put them on sale every once and a while for $6 which is a great price anymore. We purchase online and pick it up in the store. https://napafilters.com/filters/oil-filters/light-duty-oil-filters/platinumnapafilter-oil/
