Re: Break-in period for new engine

For the engine, it's pretty important. The brakes are less of an issue. The other thing that's not mentioned is that you don't wnat to have long extended runs at constant RPM to break the engine in (meaning don't run cruise control on at 70 mph in 6th gear for 300 miles straight).
