Re:600 miles... is it ready for boost???
 

I didn't build my motor, I just put it in. oh wait, I did do a head gasket on it 2 times and it's still fucked, but there's not much I could do about that besides pull the block and have it decked, and that has nothing to do with ring seating or bearings or anything like that.

dipshit i didnt say go out and rev the ---- out of it.

you systematically push the motor to redline a few times with load to get the rings to seat. then over time drive it like you'll drive it and the rings; bearings and all the other ---- will break in as you go.

and my first motor blew because i didnt check clearnances; the rings on my new motor are going because the cylinder walls were being washed down with fuel causing them to wear prematurely.

I had the machine shop bore the cylinders out within the piston manufacturers specs... then they cut the crank, balanced it and sold me some oversized bearings... they test fit everything before i picked it up, even then i checked and double checked everything.. and everything was right on the money... so tommorow morning i put that bitch together again.
