Roller cam breakin

I was wondering how you break in a roller cam. Is it the same as a flat tappet you rev to 2500rpm for 30 min or what. and should i use break in grease on the cam. Thanks

I would grease the lobes but Myers is right. No break in. The gear for the distributor does need broken in though. Keep synthetic out of it for a few hundred miles.
