Does the paperwork actually say that? The paperwork I received with my headers 2 years ago said nothing about that. Maybe it's something new they included.
I started my motor when it was new without any adverse effects on my headers; also ceramic coated Hooker Super Comps. I did have a roller cam though so I didn't have to hold the RPMs up at 2000 to break in the cam. I would call Hooker and check that out. The only thing that ever happened to mine was a slight discoloration at the first bend after about 6 runs down the track with a 150 shot of nitrous. Even that polished right off with a little compound.

I'm ready to start my fresh BB and break it in. I got a new pair of ceramic coated Hooker Comps but they adamantly say DO NOT BREAK IN NEW ENGINE WITH NEW CERAMIC HEADERS. They say it will damage the coating. They also say if you do, it will negate the warranty. So I thought I would get some junk headers and do my break in with them.
