    trannys are like a rebuilt motor, its go or blow, theres no more break in times for the cam either, as they all got roller lifters now.

    only thing you should do is the oil change 300 to 500 miles later.

    its been said beating on the new engine right out of the box helps seat the rings too.

    yeah, you can baby it, but in the end it wont matter, if its gonna blow up, it will blow up being babied as well. tune = hammer time tho.


    back in the day, a rebuilt engine got 30 minutes at 3,000 rpm, to break in the cam, then it was ready to be flogged, now a days thats not needed at all. tune it, and beat it.
