Re: Break In

[Tom Watters <tomwatters@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I too am getting near braking in my 440.  Hopefully by Friday.  Jim from
Racer Brown told me 20 min varying from 3000-4500.  Said if it gets hot,
shut it down, let it cool and start again until I have run it for 20. 
So, this is what I plan todo.

Open header break-in.  Will most likely do mid-day on a weekday out of
courtesy for the neighbors.  They will be at work.  Once broke-in, will
change oilNfilter and take it to the muffler shop.
