Can you go into more detail about this? I read a little about this, but I wasn't sure I understood it. Is this basically just pumping oil through the engine and getting it into all the little nooks and crannies?

Do you have any advice on where I could read about "proper break in procedures?" I definitely don't want to screw this engine, especially if we go the crate engine route.

Thank you!
