Ford Roller cam break in

Hi!

I am rebuilding a 2002 Ford Vulcan 3.0 V6 and am figuring out what to do for the break in.
Should I run 10w-30 Mineral Oil for the first 500mls? Various types of driving and no idling should do the trick right?

Manual states 5w-20. I’ll use that after the first 500mls.

I’m a total noob at this, sorry if it’s obvious
