I don't subscribe to the 30min thing. You can never be too careful but IMO that's a little extreme.

However you will want to change the oil and filter within a couple of hundred miles of start up because the filter will get packed with assembly lube and the oil will be contaminated with it and very small amounts of metal from the rings and cyl wall.

Get the car started and drive it for a few hundred miles to make sure the rings are seated, no rods are gonna fly out of it, ect.... And then change the oil and filter. Should be good to go for regular oil change intervals after that.
