I just put it in for the first start up on a new engine or major component. GM had technical bulletins that suggested dealerships use it with all crate motors on break-in or any replacement of major components like cams, lifters, crankshafts, etc.
Here is what I use:

I didn't add any more at the first 3000 mile oil change. Now if I was racing I might be inclined to add this or another cheaper source of ZDDP at every change because of the likelyhood of excess wear.
There are several other supplements on the market with ZDDP as well, but this one had a good reputation in my research.

Look on craigslist there are some good deals out there. My buddy just bought a 93 NA not running for $650 it needed a head gasket. We slapped it on there and he was off.

Fail. Just buy a new crank and rod and block and bearings get your built **** again a third time. This time don't tune like a caveman and boost and detonate so recklessly and you will be ok
