I made a video of my break-in box, and I run both boxes for about 20 minutes in each direction.

Running or breaking in gearboxes is just running them in an oil bath for a bit to let everything settle in. Kind of like breaking in the camshaft in a rebuilt motor so the lifters seat properly, if that helps at all.
