Darin,

I am almost ashamed to post this here, but here goes. I ordered a 2LT Summit White Camaro and am still waiting. I sold my 75 Camaro (Hipo 350, mucie4 speed custom) to lay down a deposit on the new one. I want to DRIVE my car daily, not store it for my 5 month long Canadian winters, thus the choice of the 6cyl engine.

Do you recommend the same ferocious break in for this all aluminum 6? I was thinking about running high octane gas to train the computer, especially in the beginning, but is this wise? How do I maximize power on this Aussie/world power plant?
