just updated the 4 way drum brake system in the car (i know...disc is better than drum! - wanted to keep it stock)

is there anything special to breaking in the system? - i know on a newer car they say no hard braking for the first 250mi - what about here? - does it take longer? - avoid hard brakes? - anything else? - thx

Same deal, light & moderate stops for a few days and you're good. Then go somewhere safe and put a couple of heavy applications to them.
