Accelerate from a rolling start about 5-10 miles an hour and accelerate through the gear to as fast as you want to go, say the speed limit perhaps. LOL Put car in neutral and slow down then do it again and again and again. Just load the engine. Its thats simple. make acceleration runs and load the engine.
I am at 1500 miles and engine brake all the time into corners now that I am broke in and have my first oil change. Just dont do it for a couple hundred miles. After 200-250 miles your broke in, do what ever you want.

Got it. Thanks, Darin.
couple more questions:
What RPM should I stay under?
Isn't going through all the gears bad for the rest of the drivetrain break-in? (tranny and rearend)
So I don't lay rubber off the line or chrip through the gears, right?
Really appreciate your help. Thanks again.
