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.

 

And next week the Hot Rods go back in!

 

one step at a time....


maybe i can be an honorary crew member until
they go back in?

 

how much is break in for the engine?

 

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.

 

 

As always Hammer, nicely done. I cant believe I'm just now catching up to this post.

 

well good to see ya aclass, i wondered why
you hadn't dropped in to say hello!
