Re: best break in method

Both would be the same. Just drive it normal for 100 miles or so to bed the disk in and let her buck.

Okay sweet, thanks. I wasn't sure at all on that one. I will be breaking in a new clutch and motor, sometime in the near future, didn't want to do it wrong.

If the vehicle is running well (tuned):

Idle to operating temperature. Check for leaks, make sure achieves operating temp. Change oil.

10-20 vacuum pulls to get rings seated. Then do part throttle tuning, change oil.

Let her buck.

Thats what I did for the full power/street cars that wanted a tune and break-in. Never an issue, hell John's galant was making over 600awhp with a few miles on the engine.

I've also done the drive for 5k until the engine breaks in method, BORING. OEM's run them and put them in the car, if the tune is G2G, start enjoying the car.
