Yeah, if the car has had synthetic oil I wouldn't mess with it. If it has 200K+ miles and buildup, then you don't have much to lose. In the non roller cam engines of the past, you could wipe out a lifter if you used a different brand of oil than what was used in the engine but nowadays it's not that big of a deal. Do the other routine maintenance stuff and you should be fine.
