I agree with Gene and withwannchev
A squirt of oil in each spark plug hole sounds like a good idea. And priming the oil system with a drill and screw driver shank is mandatory in my opinion to fill the oil troughs once the engine is sitting upright in the vehicle and will stay that way. I also agree that 5W-20 is the right weight of oil for break-in, and in fact in my opinion it is the right oil to keep using from then on as well. The old dipper oiled Chevs lubricate best with light oils.
I do nearly the same thing wannchev does, I change oil very soon after first starting. Even when I buy a new car, I drive it home to the shop and change oil. I would however use a high quality oil for ALL fills.
And as said by Gene and wannchev... no slow idling!
