Break in for an LT1?

Question

I just rebuilt my LT1 - how many miles/hours should it have before break in is through? Any specific techniques or limitations (what should I set me RPM cap at)?

But "normal driving" for this car includes drag racing at the strip every once and a while. How long until I can drag it?

Answer 1

Break in periods for new engines with todays new bearings and
clearance technology is not near as important as it was 20 or 30 years ago.... even though you should change your first oil at approx. 1500 miles and the filter which will have trapped any impurities (metal shavings etc..) and just drive it normally
