It works for me built or stock engines, I will continue to do it till I see a reason not too. Except for flat tappet cams, a new one of those gets treated differently.

I don't believe in no break in, I just think the OE is for people with no mechanical sympathy and to ensure it happens so they give excessive mileage numbers before getting on it.
