Go to
www.jettengineering.com and read engine break-in procedures. You will be supprised as to how Jett recommends a quality high rpm engine be broken in, wide frigging open at a rich start. I thind Dave Schadel of Nelson fame is also a advicate of this procedure. The info at Jett engineering is well worth the reading time, and yess, I am a big Jett fan, wish I found him years ago.
This what Bob Brassell also told me for my TT 36Pro. Mount it on a test stand, put a light load prop on it (APC 8x6 in my case), start it up, peak it and back off 3-400rpm. Let it scream at this rpm for 3 tanks or so. Then set the low end and check the transition. Then go fly it.
