I believe in stretching the rods and bedding in the rings.. so I drive it like an old lady until 15 minutes AFTER it's warm, and then like a complete PRAT until 15 minutes before I need to switch off.. then like an old lady again.. just don't bounce off the red line and use your torque loads to make the engine work good and hard...

I've rebuilt several engines and the strongest ones were always the ones which got driven hardest from the get go... so long as you don't abuse the redline and let it warm up and cool down properly
