When we broke in the engine in my Sunfire right after the re-build (Quad 4 LD9 engine) we did 3-4 1/4 mile passes going down the back street and called it a day

We take this statement into consideration and align it with this thought, Let's run each engine to our accepted break in period to know that the seals are made. And then when the customer comes in for warranty work we know it's legit.


You do that math.
Hey now, I didn't say what they do when they run them

The Mustangs seem to break-in fine by driving it like you stole it right off the showroom/transport truck. Bang the limiter a few times before you reach 100 miles.

Yes see I meant to say miles not horses. I think I must have been drunk the night I wrote that and I just now went back and found your response. Thanks!
