Re: finally......the project is done (martini)
Is it not acceptable but even preferable to get up high in the rev range for break in? I don't mean WOT 1/4 runs all day, just occasionally get the revs up under partial throttle. Otherwise drive conservatively and I think the main thing to avoid is long, steady state RPMs for, what, 3K miles to be sure?
