breaking in an engine like it says in the book is a big no-no especially with nikasil cylinders like the brute, you get poor ring seal and loose hp. I know it sounds dumb but read thisbreak in scroll down the page abit and enjoy the read. Also why do engine builders break there engines on the dyno?? just something to think about
