I have to say that I am stunned at the level of ignorance from some people on this forum. Those who have never built race engine or even a street engine in their lives post their uneducated opinions about a subject matter they have ZERO experience with and know nothing about. Actually the majority of the negative posts regarding this break in procedure are from the most ignorant and inexperienced. I showed some of my engine building buddies this thread and they could only read about half of it before they got sick and quit. The posts that really got me was individuals stating something like this,
“This is not a racing engine it shouldn’t be broke in like one.”
Or worse yet,
” Racing engines are different this is a street engine and the factory engines of today are built to more exact tolerances”.
PLEASE! You have to be joking. That’s ignorance of the highest level! To say that a street engine is built to more exacting tolerances than a 150K racing engine is just stupid. So using this rational, you're stating that an engine built to a higher tolerance should not be broke in using this method? Well a racing engine is built the HIGHEST standards in the world. Standards the factory could not dream of meeting so why are racing engines broke in this way? Because it’s the correct way to do it, that’s why. It does not matter if it’s a street engine, racing engine or a Briggs and Stratton on a go cart. You break them in the same way. I have decades and millions of dollars of research under my belt. I have worked on, built and researched some of the world’s fastest and most powerful engines. I know what I am talking about. You don’t. To say other wise just proves your ignorance and inexperience. If you're going to post negative opinions about this method please post your engine building accomplishments, world records, track records or any records so we can tell if the person posting is just talking out there a$$ or actually has a valid point.
I have seen this work on THOUSANDS of engines. The proof is in the data obtained over almost three decades of engine building and development. To say that these engine are different is wrong.
