The old adage of breaking in an engine slowly and carefully based on limited rpm exposure is wrong, imho, based on current ring metal technology, and I offer this one site to buffer my advice, which is to RUN IT HARD! And change the oil...

There are other sites that agree with this philosophy, and now let the letters begin LOL.
