Break in? Nah.... Just go out and drive in a figure 8 till the baby seal dies (shreaking noise from rear end) Once there is no more noise go out and hammer on it. Never had an issue with a clutch pak here.

Some say yes, some say no. I usually burn one tank of gas, then mash on it. Just for the hell of it.
