I'm planning on buying a reman from Malloy's soon and was wondering what were the proper break ins I should know of?

kyle@insight

Put oil in, start the car and let it idle for roughly 3 minutes and then turn it off and drain the oil.

Put more (new) oil in and drive for 500 miles while keeping the RPMs below 4k. Change oil

Drive for 1000 miles keeping RPM below 5k. Change Oil.

That should do it.

1500 miles to break an engine in?

here are some threads I dug up. They deal mostly with rebuilds rather than remans, but the same principles should still apply:

Seriously now. Can royal purple be run on 7's w/ out a premix??? I want to put the best oil in my baby that I can give her, no alternatives.

kyle@insight

No, oil is oil. If you have to premix with valvoline, you'll have to premix with royal purple.

I don't break any of my personal engines in.I fire it up and let it boost.
