Default Running in a new engine, need guidance

Hi all

As title im getting near to the stage where i'll be firing up my engine for the first time. The engine has been rebuilt with new pistons/rings etc etc so i need to do it right

I know the cam has to be run in (2500rpm for 20 minutes) but im wondering about things like:

Setting the timing on the dizzy
What oil to use
Running in the engine generally (how many miles, how fast etc)
Can i get a tuning company to run her in?

Any tips?

Any help greatly appreciated

Thanks for looking
