New clutch procedures?

So how do you break in a new clutch? I have the ACT/SR motorsports(9.5) combo with new bearings and a 2k mile rebuilt tranny. I am putting NEO or AMSOIL in the tranny and the new clutch combo whenit gets here but ive never had a brand new one. Any thing special to do?

Usually its just 200-300 miles of mild engagement (i.e. no dropping the clutch).

Cool deal, I heard something like 500 but even that wont be very long. I cant wait to get this done! I have a number of issues with the stock stuff like a little bearing noise until push in the clutch and not holding under the heaviest of use. also the motor mounts i got should get rid of the engine torgue problem... that and the engine brace/ dampner

Also whats the best lube and weight for the trans to ensure healthy parts and synchros... i heard something like a "true gt4/gl4"?

25-30 normal starts should do it. Miles don't do anything themselves, its only when you start and change gears.
