"I know this is standard break in for a flat tappet cam. I don't think you need to do that 10-20 min run with a roller cam. Hopefully one of the more technically sound members will be on here soon to help us fill in the gaps."

I had an old school hotrodder helping me some with my motor install...might explain the break in process I did. Worked fine for me. Sorry it wasn't "technically sound" enough for your standards. Just letting a fellow Mustanger know what worked for me. It's already been said, but obviously you wouldn't break in a motor with Mobil-1 synthetic.
