What's the recommended break in period for the 2600? I've searched and found answers anywhere from 200 all the way up to 500. I'm on 230 miles right now and I really want to see how my setup is when I get on it. I put in a 2600, ACT X-ACT flywheel, and a Quaife L.S.D. I'm probably gonna wait till between 250-300.
 
I didn't even wait. I was running the car pretty hard the 2nd day after the clutch was put in (50-100 miles). I have about 40k on this clutch. It stills hold strong, and still breaks transmissions! :)
 
Sorry to hear about that... how did it break???
 
1st time- Broke Shift rail (my fault)
2nd time- Broke a few teeth off of 2nd gear.
3rd time- Wasted the master cylinder (not tranny related/probably would've happened anyway)
4th time- Broke the clutch release fork(replaced it with the billet steel one)
5th time and most recent (last month)- The diff blew up, but probably the BM inserts fault.)

I'm becoming a pro at dropping the tranny!
