I don't have a Z yet, but why would you baby it during the break-in period? The point is to get all of the seals to settle and work off any extra casting materials so that all of the moving parts work themselves smooth (to a point). I remember reading about engine break-in and there was no instruction about babying it. The article just gave a sequence of RPMs and gears to run and how many miles to do it in. I will search for the data that I am talking about and post it up in a few miinutes.
