Opinions on break in

If this doesn't belong here just delete it. I have it in the help section but only got one response so....



I'll be ordering a re-man long block motor in a week or two. I'd like to know some steps from initial start up to breaking it in. Like priming it up... any kind of procedure to follow here? And break in... how long, what rpm's?... I have a friend helping me out but I'd like to get some opinions on this from others.
thanks

The synthetic oil BS about waiting so many miles is untrue, don't use it to break the motor in unless you want to spend $200 in 1 day for getting the break in lube out (if you are using a non roller motor)

Trust me it had nothing to do with the oil
