yes lots of ways to skin a cat :)  

Here is CPC racings break-in procedure (CP built many snowmobile cylinders for them)
https://www.cpcracing.com/cpc-racing-performance-handbook-1300cc-big-bore/


Break-In How you break-in your new CPC engine will determine if your engine will be fast or slow. Proper break-in procedure also requires 30 minutes of break-in time at an idle. Do not rev the engine over 2000 RPM’s during the first 30 minutes of idle time. In order to avoid overheating of the engine, you should run the engine three to five minutes at a time and then allow a ten minute cool down time.Make sure that oil injection lines are purged of any air bubbles before start-up . Also the use of high quality synthetic oils greatly increase the success of a proper break-in . Quality synthetic oils include Arctic Cat APV synthetic, Redline or Amsoil racing oil. After the 30 minutes of idle break-in time we suggest that you vary the running RPM’s . Do not hold the throttle at a steady position for more than 15 seconds at a time. Revving the engine up and down with short bursts of full throttle acceleration will improve break-in. If these instructions are not adhered to strictly, streaking and scuffing will appear immediately, causing poor performance and ruining the nikasil in the cylinder. We recommend that you have patience during the jetting and clutching tuning stages of your new CPC engines. Take a day or two of dialing the engine in before competition racing or long rides. Do not make any hard pulls up steep mountain or Dyno pulls at Wide Open Throttle (WOT) for more than 3 to 5 seconds for the 1st tank of fuel. Do not run WOT for more than 6 to 10 seconds the 2nd tank of fuel and 12 to 15 seconds WOT for third tank of fuel. Do not make any hard pulls over 30 seconds long until after 4 full tanks of fuel or piston seizure will result!
Anyone looking for a great builder I highly recommend the following.
For CP products dealers I would recommend:
Arlan at LED(site sponsor), Pete Schemberger at Hybrid Engineering, Mat Shearer at Shearer Custom Pipes, Dennis Packard at Packard Racing, and Nate McCoy of McCoys Peformance.

Other great builders I also would recommend: Neil Prichard, Jerry Hall, Bubba Ramsey and James Dodge.

led made an important point. metals retain alot of stresses from machining and the heat cycles relieve these stresses.

 i enjoy learning from the guys that have been building engines for many years; it helps me with getting a more practical understanding as opposed to the theoretical side im getting from school.
