Their website used to say it is OK, but have not been to their website for a while. Seal conditioners are different than seal swellers.

There would be absolutely no reason not to use this product from the start, as it is 100% safe for new or rebuilt applications as well.

You could use it, but why not just save a couple of bucks and use Motorcraft 5W-20 synblend or Pennzoil YB? I like MaxLife, but I wouldn't bother in using is it a newer engine.
 
Its a great oil, yes use it. MC is also a very robust 5W20... Both are semi syns.
