What is the Normal Break in period for a fully rebuilt 3sgte. my guy at toyota says to take it easy for 5000 miles. Which sucks because I only drive the celi on the weekends.

Haha, this is a funny question. Ask 10 different engine builders, and you'll get 10 different answers. Some people say run them hard right off the bat, some say baby them for a while. 5000 is definitely on the long side. I'd say be nice to it for like 500-1000, but thats just me.
