I replaced 3/4 Qt at 600 miles. Since then (now at 1200 miles) I have not replaced one drop.

Questions for you, how did you break it in? Did you follow the manufacturer's recommendation and keep it under 4000 rpm for the first 1200 miles? Did you vary your rpm's as much as possible? What oil are you using to replace the oil in the crankcase?
