once I opened the link I recognized the guys face. I didn't read what anyone else said on here but I broke in my new motor on the dyno. We also changed the oil several times during the first 1000 or so miles. I've had people ask me what the break in period was for my car when I bought it new. (I bought it off the trailer, but I'm sure they are broken in before they make it to the dealer) My reply always was "from the dealer's lot to the street". I'd bet I hit redline within the first 2 minutes of driving it.
