Hmmm does he do a lot of street driving? There seems to be a lot of controversy on how to break in an engine. I have heard a lot of people say break it in how you're going to drive it. I'm shooting at least close to a similar power level as him so idk how important mileage is to higher hp engines

- Run for 3000 miles, then change back to synthetic
*Using regular because synthetic is too viscous, and doesn't allow the rings to rub enough on new pistons*
That's good info! As for the oil I have enough amsoil break in oil for the first 1500 miles
