I would run a few tanks at idle, rich as you can to keep it running. Then run it on the ground being very easy on the throttle. Between tanks let it cool. Give it at least 7-8 tanks before you start to lean it out, and always leave the piston and BDC when its cooling off.
 
Casey,
My Nova is just finishing breaking in at about a gallon of fuel. I just sent you a few pics. Once I figure out how to post pics I'll post my Super savage.
