After a head change I would be doing a filter/oil change after about 2K at least, going to a 5W30, a higher grade than recomended is always an option I prefer, as just gives that little bit extra if working the engine with load which I do .... any noticeable rise in eng temp is more likely to be a cooling system problem.........10K oil/filter changes.
There are also reports that the lower oil grade is more for fuel economy, (stars on the sticker) than a longer lasting engine.
