It would take me 5 years to rack up 5000 miles. I would run as much as I intended right off. Just make sure its gonna work. Back in the day, guys were spraying stock motors practically off the show room floor.

I would start off with a 75 shot until you get it tuned and running right and then step up to a 100 or a 150 shot.

Making sure that he has no detonation or problems with fuel before he goes to a bigger shot, because 75 is a lot more forgiving than a 100 through 150 would be.

Just a safety precaution.
