new clutch break-in
 
just got the new centerforce II in, centerforce says 450-500 miles of easy stop and go driving, my mechanic said a week should be cool. any opinions on this? also, in neutral, is reving the gas considered bad or does this not effect the new clutch at all?

well, my mechanic did all the work, he did resurface the flywheel. as for cleaning the plate and flywheel, i dunno.

whats considered a heat cycle, a 10 min drive? never heard the term before

Well from what Ive done in the past and its worked fine just stay off the highway until you get about a 100miles on it ,has something to do about staying at a constant RPM, also dont race or downshift just go easy and after about 100 or so miles you should be fine, thats what ive done and never had a problem.
