Default 377 Break in procedure

I have been hearing conflicting procedures for new motor break in. The old adage is break it in hard and it will be fast or give tlc for 500 miles. I read one motor builder suggest that to properly seat the rings the rings need to be loaded and unloaded [full throttle then let off the pedal and allow the engine to slow the car.]
What do you guys do for break in? This is a forged motor with 11 to 1 CR. for street strip use.
