340 break in question

True story. I built an engine for a member here several years ago. Unfortunately, his wife got very sick plus they went through a hurricane....just hard times in general. He ended up selling it. A friend of a friend bought it locally. Went in a 67 notchback Barracuda. REAL nice little 360. Zero deck height. 10.5:1 measured compression. Nice lumpy old school Erson grind. Just a really nice little street motor. I dumped its first oil in (Lucas 10/30 hot rod oil) plus extra zinc additive and even primed it. Even got oil to the top just slobberin all over the place before he took it. I stressed over and over and over and OVER how important it was to get RPM UP immediately on initial startup. Saw him about a week after initial fire and asked him how it went. "Oh it cranked right up and we let it idle till it got warm and it's all broke in now". I don't know WHY people cannot get this stuff THROUGH their heads. This has been a couple years ago now, but the car is still running great, so I guess all that extra zinc saved his ***. Sometimes people just refuse to listen.......not referring to the OP here, just tellin the story.
