As an aside my Museum host seemed more concerned about varying the break in speeds to not ultimately develop diferential ring & pinion noise. |idea|

Picked up our C-6 at Museum. They told us for first 500 miles drive speed limit max, vary speed, no hard acceleration or braking and do not use cruise control. |bouncy|

The main reason for no constant speeds is so the the rings can seat properly. Most people drive at various speeds anyway so typically it is no big deal. Thanks to all who have posted so far for some great info!!!
