sorry, not sure what I am doing but trying to find posts with engine break in procedure and I am just finding posts about engine blowing up. First 500 miles have to keep it under 3800rpms then change the oil, no hard stops, common sense stuff, then what?

Owners Manual has break-in instructions. That's all you need.

Regarding searching the forum, I think a search engine does a way better job that the built-in search. For instance, just Google site:corvetteforum/forums/c7-z06-discussions searchterms or something similar.
