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.

i would take it out and go full throtle in second gear up to redline, then let it wind all the way down to about 2k rpm. do that i think its like 6-8 times then go back and change the oil. then just drive normal for the next 100 miles, then change the oil. then drive it the next 500 miles normally then change the oil and that's it.

btw, when i saw drive it normal, you dont have to baby it.

that to me is the best way seat the rings.
