Default YANK Break in period????

I'm about to put my stall in tomorrow and I was wondering if there is any break in period that I have to do? I plan on putting about 200 miles on it before I get on it, but if there is no certain time then I will just break it in until I see a good straight away then :steering: :party:

Instructions from Yank specifically state: BREAK IN PERIOD - The converter has special clutch lining material that requires a special break in procedure, This consist of: Driving converter at normal speeds with NO WOT starts or brake stalling converter for approx. 150 miles. Stall checking or Brake stalling will severely damage clutch lining if converter is not broke in properly. This will Void any warranty
