Engine break-in



Initial success with the SX/4 258 install.  Did the 20
min cam break-in at 2000rpm and all went well (ran
steady, no overheating).  Drained the oil and will set
the timing tomorrow.  As far as driving, what is the
consensus on the break in period.  Most of what I have
read says to vary the speed for the first 500 miles. 
I drive 18 miles to work each day and about 12 are on
the freeway.  Would the 15 minutes or so at 60mph be
bad for the break in (I could try to go between 50-70
mph if that would be enough variation).  Thanks.
Marty
