Rebuilding 2003 Viper Top End

[Boyer]

I am redoing the top end of a 2003 Viper. Do I need to worry about a break in period? And should I run oil in the first tank of gas? Thank you for your assistance.

I just give them 2 heat cycles then beat the snot out of em. If you add oil to the first tank don't add a lot or you'll lean out the fuel too much with the oil in the tank and oil from the pump.

I mix 2 gallons @ 50:1(empty tank) for the heat cycles mainly. If I ride it at all its just puttering around the yard/driveway. Fill tank to dilute the pre-mix to little to nothing and ride it!
