Ya, i kinda don't get it either.
The title, first line and frown face are confusing me.
Make no mistake, i love car, i'm just confused to what the hell you are talking about.

 

[The_Dude]

OK. 1. My car is finally done being restored. (almost)
2. I need to break the car in due to new rear and clutch (it's hard to do without wanting to get on it) that's why the face.
3. I need to monitor car for any troubles or problems (ie. small leaks,tire rubbing, etc.. And i hate this part.

This is actually the 2nd version of the restoration. I changed the interior to black, went with cloth recaros and changed to bigger brake system, wheels, etc...

Congrats then, i would'nt worry too much about break in mileage.
Most build ups go straight from the lift onto the dyno, where after a few heat cycles the clutch no longer slips.
Breaking in a rear is an old wives tale, if it was built right, there won't be any issues regardless of how hard you drive it.

 

[88-378]

It's been on the dyno before this recent resto. I am not worried about the engine. But, last time, my rear seal and tranny input shaft leaked. (long story of conflicitng opinions) and it ate my clutch up. so, I am working out all the bugs. My clutch guys, (promotion) specifically told me not to drive it hard.

The rear, that is something i have always done anyway. And, I never had a problem. But i do agree with you on proper install. So it's under 3,500rpm for me for now.

 

[StreetsideStig]

Huh?

The paint scheme has that vintage, gradient look that I remember from that era.

 

[SMOKEDYA]

If you did a HP clutch then yeah you need to break it in.So is it a real saleen? Looks good. peace
