It has been reported by several sources that switching to a synthetic oil after having used dyno oil for 100k miles is not a wise thing to do.

Primarily due to the syn oil cleaning away the varnish and deposits that build up around the seals, thus causing leaks to develop.

A name brand 10w-30 or 10w-40 would be fine.

PS: Your brother is overly sensitive.
