so isin't it dangerous, overheating non run-in parts?
Overheating?

Did i say to toss the rad away, and run it with no cooling system.

I gave my opinion, its been proven by many other folks, and by me personally in hundreds of motors.
Take it or leave it.

But never did I say to overheat the motor, or spin it past its redline.
I said run it hard....and I mean run it hard....really hard.

But I did not say take a motor meant to redline at say 10,000 rpm and ride it around at 14,000 rpm....nor did i say drain the coolant out, or block the rad off with cardboard lets say, to cause overheating.

Go read my post again.
