On-topic: Seriously, the best advice seems to be to vary the rpm range greatly within the first few-hundred miles, and do NOT push it past 80-85% power during that period.
I will also heed the advice to run normal oil during the break-in. Unfortunately -- this means you would have to do a complete oil flush/refill after picking it up off the lot (I'm assuming some synthetic will come in it from the factory <Mobil1>).
But, it's a price worth paying. At least we won't have to deal with the tricky dry-sump system that comes in the new Z06/ZR1 Corvettes.
Any other suggestions?
PS- "Drive it like you stole it" from the dealer is NOT a sound idea. It might not BREAK, but it won't "seat" as well as one that was broken in.
