Does a new lower unit require some type of break in period and method? If so, what is it?

NO full throttle for at least 20 hours, then you have to send LJ 25 bucks, and buy Won Hunglo a new inflatable toy.

Rusty, I have been told that it is brand new case, but I'm not sure if it is from BRP or a 3rd party. They couldn't find a reman the other day when the adjuster was there, so he ok'd a new lower unit that they found.
I guess I can ask the dealer, when I call him for the status tomorrow.

If its a BRP case run it, you should have no problems.
what about a reman? Using same case, new gears, bearings, shafts, and seals.

Everytime I have had one that has been redone, I was told to break it in like a motor...
But my way of breaking in a motor might be different than the "proper" way. I break it in like I'm going to use it. Full throttle for 10-20 seconds at a time, vary rpms, full acceleration here and there. W/ a boat, you gotta use full acceleration to get out of the hole.

I don't use reman cases unless told to by the customers insurance company.
In this case, I would instruct the customer to break them in easy, they may break soon enough on their own.
