1) How many miles before first oil change? about 1200
2) How many miles before racing? I have never and will never race my car, but I had it at a local HPDE last summer at around 5,000 miles
3) How many miles before dyno? NA
4) How many miles before taking the RPM to 8250? 1300
5) Have you ever reved the engine before reaching operating temps? 180+ Yes all the time (assuming you are talking engine oil temp rather than cylinder head temp), because the engine oil doesn't reach 180+ in cool temperatures. I don't regularly wing it up close to the red line, though. I have red lined the car a few times when ambient temperatures were quite cold, but not often. Water will always be up to temp prior to revving or pushing it, though. I want the pistons to be fully warm.
6) Have you used less than 91-93 octane fuel? heck no!
7) Stock or modified? Ford performance dual oil catch cans
8) If your engine was replaced, at how many miles were on the original engine? Original
9) If you changed or had the oil changed, what oil did you use? only use manufacturer's recommended replacement components
10) How often did you monitor your oil level or added oil? No oil added, right on the dot
