QUOTE(redshift @ Sep 3 2003, 04:19 PM) I don't know if the cam has even been through a break-in, and I don't think the builder is going to clue me in. Assume not. The cam/lifters MUST have a break-in lube applied. Most FLAPS have the stuff. The MolyB stuff is best (Molybidium disulfide ...my best shot at speeling it). Use it or the cam will go flat....it's that simple. Figure a way to check for it....I donno dick bout t-4s. Cam break-in is 20 minutes at 2000 rpm......that's what I use.....no stops......unless the oil prressure drops to 0 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) I use Valvoline 30 wt non-detergent oil for ring break- in....100 miles usually does it. I don't break them in easy, either. Make it work.....if it's gonna blow, why waste time, I figure. Just make sure it's up to temp before getting on it hard. |

The HEs are mounted, should I also have the muffler on?
(IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) It will be a nice relaxing few minutes compared to the last month, I hope I can do it out of the car. M |

Put the muffler on it. You have to run it at 2k for 20 minutes.. no need to be loud about it. Plus.. if the engine does something funky.. you want to hear it happen.
