How many miles until this sled is broken in. I searched and it seems like it's pretty quick. I have 84 miles on it finally lol. Hoping to put more on tomorrow.

Need some WOT bursts to build lots of cylinder pressure to seat rings.
How many miles of this beating lol? I want to do it right.

The ones that follow the break-in procedure to a T turn into oil-burners and dogs. And who likes dumping oil in a sled, I mean really....?

No I will be favoring the wot for short burst for the first 100 miles and maybe start picking that up a bit after. 350 miles I will hit the lake and pin.

Yes I know. No worries.I’m only referring to what the manual says..
I truly believe that new engines need full load periods with some periods of rest in between also to seat rings properly.
