well alrighty then....
everything is back together and the car started right
up. i haven't taken the car out yet, because it's been
raining. in the mean time i've been reading up on
piston ring seating, i think this weekend will be perfect
timing for the maiden voyage.

hey there onederful, if you mean how many
miles? i don't know honestly.
i have finally found a pretty good commentary
though, on engine break-in. Just look at the street/strip
section.

i'm thinking of varying the RPM (1700-2400) for the
first 5-10 minutes, followed by a cool down, followed
by a cruise with just the right amount of time, engine load
and temperature.
