I'd just suggest to change your oil at 500 miles, than at 1500 miles, than at 3000 miles and every 3000 after that.ucstang said:Hello: i am about to receive an 2005 windveil blue gt and was wondering if there are any special brake in procedures that you have heard of or have used?

An engine that wasn't broken in correctly (even the old ones that weren't seated at the factory) didn't necessarily fall apart within 100 miles of driving them hard without proper break-in.
