I disagree with this. It takes MUCH more radial tension to seat aqq set of rings than the engineered radial tension, especially with a set of performance rings. On the engine dyno, you can watch the rings actually seat by watching blow-by. They generally won't seat until a significant load is applied. Boost, as stated earlier, helps seat the rings. It is cylinder pressure behind the ring that forces them hard against the cylinder wall, creating the ring seal by "wearing" into the block. There is nowhere near enough radial load to knock down the honing ridges by turning, the engine over on the stand. I DO agree with your other statements, though.
I break an engine in by running it at 2,000 rpm for 15-20minutes while checking for leaks and any other anomoly. Then drain oil and cut the filter to check for copious amounts of debris. (There WILL be some) then add new oil/filter. Warm engine up, then put in gear, slowly bring boost up to 2-3 Psi against the converter, then slam my foot to the floor and watch the boost go to 15 or so. This is what actually seats the rings. Then hand the keys over and tell them to go ahead and race it today.
