This has been asked before, so I'd do a search. I'd follow the guidelines in the owners manual and not drive at any steady speed for too long, but at the same time not being too easy or too hard on it for the first 500 miles.

SO DRIVING AROUND A 100 MPH WITH 800 MILES ON THE ENGINE IS OK FOR ABOUT 10 MILES???

Try racing every d#$k head ricer in Toronto! Tends to meet both criteria. Actually most of the ricers were quite grateful in their defeats.
