Kenneth, you mentioned break-in - so what breakin procedure are you employing? Is it because of the Piston? you are doing a certain procedure!

Not to jack however related / You got me wonderin now if I did mine correctly for the last cam job which was keepin the cam above 2000 rpm for 20 minutes after initial start-up, after that drive as per normal. This is what i have planned for my Crazy Spartan.

Anyhow it sounds real good!

The break in is for the piston and rings due to we honed the cyclinder just to give it a fresh surface. Long as you dont drain the lifters and use assembly lube your good to go. Ya figure its 15 mins or so of idling for the thermo to open and get all of the coolent right. I will be right over 120 miles when it pulls into the track tonight but its not gonna make a pass till next month.

Not sure what it will do on the 1/4 wont try till sept sometime. There is a dirt race tonight that im going to but am trying my best not to run till the next one sept 25th. In the dirt I should run a 6.8 or alill quicker in the 300 ft, old set up was 7 flats and im sure with alill better air I coulda been 6.9s.
