I wish the break in thread was not closed. Though I do understand why. I wish I would of read it before I got to 525 miles on my car. Luckly, I did hit 80 a couple of times on the highway on my way home. Also ripped into it on an on ramp or two. I was not so scientific as to count how many times I did it. Then stomped on it from the light wow a V6 sounds better that way. Like someone was raping it... lol... So I have not made to many passes doing that all at once. But showing my friends the car and them saying you wasted money buying a v6, then them pulling there chest out of my front seat was funny. Yah boy not your mommys v6 ha. Sure I dont expect v8 power from a v6. I do expect 312 HP of fun though. And I will now put it in "M" (Stealing a Line Here) for More Fun. In the end I may be a little late for the 25 time break in, though I did stomp on her a few times. Now its stomp on her, stomp on her alot more, cool down and stomp some more.
The only regret is not having read the break in thread earlier. It should be mandatory reading for every camaro owner.
THANK YOU FOR THE THREAD, who buys a Camaro to baby it... errrrrrrr...

To my knowledge "break-in" is achieved at 1,500 miles. Also, aren't the break-in threads located in the Mechanical Maintenance Thread?

Perhaps, they are I am sure a newbie like me can make a mistake. Yes by the book its 1500 miles.
For some read the book and live by the book. For others read the break in post by Darrin, http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=39955 .

Funny, I do the same thing to friends who rag on my 3rd gen V6 and 140HP

After a ride no one ever says crap again. [ The T5 n stock 3:42s helps ]
