				Break In Procedure.. Your way?
			 
 
			Ive recently rebuilt the top end (rings, honing, heads...) on my 2.4.  Im wondering if I've got it right for breakin procedure
 Since I only have new rings and honing: (no new cams)
 
 Use Non synthetic oil for breakin...   10w30  is what I normally run  Or should I begin running Different weight oil?
 
 1   Drive the car to operating temp
 
 2    Accelerate liberally not to exceed WHAT RPM?  app. 4000??
 
 3     Decelerate allowing the cars momentum to continue pushing  the engine
 
 All the while maintaning regular operating temp.
 
 Do these simple steps for the 1st 500 miles THEN
 Change Oil
 
 4   Continue w/ the same procedure for the next 500 miles maybe increasing rpm's a bit.
 
 Good enough??
