Using Break-In Oil on Freshly Built Head?

Freshly Built ‘95 KA24DE Head
- Brian Crower Titanium Seats
- BC Valve Guides
- BC STD size Intake and Exhaust Valves
- BC 264/264 Cams
- BC Dual Valve Springs
- Mahle Valve Seals
- Jim Wolf Adjustable Cam Gears
- Brand New Timing Chains and Guides

Untouched/Stock Bottom End

Goal of this “Build” is really to just get the car running. No drifting or high revving in mind. Parts and upgrades are purely for safety, longevity, and reliability.

My question is.... would it be necessary to use a Break-In Engine Oil? I know people use it on rebuilt engines to help with the seating of the piston rings and for the added protection during this critical and early stage of engine’s new life. But they also use this type of oil to live and protect valvetrain parts as well. Just looking for a second opinion and thoughts within the community. Thanks.
