Steve & Claudette Colwell's post re: engine break-in, as they say, comes
from a chrome cylinder guru. The recipe given is definitely a requirement
for chrome jugs, but for standard steel or Nitrided steel cylinders, stick
with the Lycoming Bible.

Tieing the tail down and running the engine to high power, if you can, is a
great idea - but use the big scoop shroud and watch the temps and the FOD.
