Default clutch and flywheel break-in?

i just swapped in a sohc vtec in my 92 civic and was wondering what the guidelines were for a proper break-in. i have a new exedy organic (street) and a new clutchmasters flywheel. stuff like minimum mileage before "hard driving" and rpm limits and different driving stages? etc would be helpful. thanks in advance

Drive easy on it for 500 miles.

Stop and go is the best.

Don't ride the clutch.

Don't powershift

Don't hammer it while driving.

Keep unnecassary weight out of the car (don't pile all your buds in the car and go driving)

Basically, drive like a typical 80 year old grandma.
