Re: SRT Q&A: 3/12/08 from 6pm to 8pm EST @ 300Cforums.com

In Wednesday's SRT 300C Chat Session, someone asked the engineers if it would be okay to drive a new SRT 800 miles home from the dealer. I had previously asked this question several months ago and they said it was okay- just avoid wide open throttle.

Yesterday, they expanded upon their previous answer and stated that the SRT engines are partially broken-in when they arrive at the dealers. They have already been run for 200 miles at 30 mph before they are installed in new vehicles. After the first tank of gas , the engine will have been run 500 miles and is fully broken-in. I thought that this was interesting.
