How did you run it in? I was told by Newman not to run it in as such, just take it for a drive as I normally would for 30 mins and not to rev the nuts off it, but not to let it idle too long if possible.

Thing is, my cars not taxed, MOT'd or insured so can't do this. Had anyone ran one in off the road? I was just going to sit in the garage and "pretend I was driving" Will it be ok to run it up to 3k for 20 mins like normal? It's been fitted properly and absolutely coated in thick red camlube. I'll also be filling it with oil right before I start it for the first time so will pour the oil all over the cam and head.
