Hello firts build and almost ready to start it up.
1. I can use cheap wallmart oil to start my breaking the motor?
2. Can i use cheap filtor or bad idea do to have to filter the dirt of the motor?
3. I will do hard breaking by 20 minutes at 2000 to 3000rpm, not idle and let it over night.(change oil)?
4. Drive the car on freeway by up and down the rpm, with no breaking.(change oil)?
5. Let it cool down and use ok oil but not synthetic and keep driving hard for the last oil change?
Know should i use kn filters or cheaps are fine? Also i read the motoman, and few dsm post. Thanks for reading
 
You would be better off going with the motor man method.

The 2000 -3000 rpm for 20-30 mins is for a old school domestic with a flat tappet cam, to mate the lifters to the cam.

The 4g is not like that, you want some (safe) boost level, to push the rings into the cylinder walls.

For breaking in your motor use this method.

I'd personally use Wix filters. That's all I'd use.

Between those two links all the information you need to know is right there.
 
Well guys tomorrow i will try to get the motor ready to install, so i went to cosco and got 10-30 oil box of supreme chevrolet 12 1qt oil to do my oil changes to wear the rings. Well the question should i use the kn or movil 1 oil filter, or go for less expensive since i will change then at least 4 times, but. When i break the engine i will use vr1 oil and if i can get an mopar oil filter for the dsm.
Also shold i take my cam shaft main caps bolts cause i torque then at 20 ft lb cause thats the lowest my ranch will go.
