Default Ram HD break in period?

What is the typical break-in period you guys have followed with the Ram HD. I was told around 200-250 and it should be good. So far the clutch feels great-I love the feel of the clutch pedal now-it's the way a Hi-performance car should be. Pedal was releasing near the floor right after the install but after around 80 miles the release point has moved near the top or just like the stock LS6 clutch release point. Just wondering on the break-in miles as I would like to dyno this friday and then head to the track on saturday?

Thanks!

Default

I put somewhere around 200 or so on mine before any "abuse"
I had mostly highway miles on mine, and took some advice to slip it alittle going down the highway every few miles since i didn have alot of intown driving i could do.

I'd put 250 on it intown driving, or follow their directions to the letter. this will always result in the best life of the clutch.
