From his Twin Cam book:
Never exceed 3000RPM, in any gear, for the first 1000 miles (1600kms). After that, increase 500 RPM for every 500 miles.
…
Change oil at 500 miles. Check chain & valve clearances.
...
Change oil every 3000 miles afterwards. Chain & valve clearances every 5000 miles.
…
Never run the engine in the winter, it does more harm than good. If you do, let it warm up and run for at least 30 minutes.
…
If the car is run very little, change the oil twice seasonally. The acids in oils will attack the bearings.
…
This will give 80,000-90,000 miles lifespan.
