cheapest quality oil
 

whats the cheapest oil I should use to break my rebuild motor in? is synthetic blend ok? I dont want to go too cheap on the oil, because I will be running full synthetic after break in. what do you guys use????

Re:cheapest quality oil
 

no synthetic on breaking. straight no name brand (supertech from walmart is good) SAE 30.

beat the ---- out of it after she's warm for a good half hour. Search google: motoman breakin method!

It will only take you about 100mi to get her nice and broken in, change the oil (another change of sae30) and drive it till like 2/3k miles whatever you feel like, change to the oil you want to run permanently and never look back.

Good luck.

Im a SuperTech man myself.

On a side note, if you are doing your own 'meat-ball' hone with the block in the car, no matter how many cans of brake cleaner you go through cleaning the bores/crank/everything, there will be metal particals in there, alot.
Having cut the filters open after each post break-in oil change, I was suprised at how much metal there was still there from the hone job.

Followed that after both rebuilds, and worked out good.
Although Id recommend changing the oil after 25m then again at 100m.
