Rotella is a good oil. I would run conventional oil in your engine until about 10,000 miles. After that you can switch over to synthetic if you want, but it is not necessary to use synthetic. If you go synthetic, Rotella has one, Mobil has one (Delvac 1 or Turbo Diesel oil), and Amsoil is good stuff too. I personally use the mobil stuff (delvac 1).
