Re: Going to break in 383 on Sunday

correct me if i'm wrong but the engines in brand new cars are already broken in at the factory, thats why they run synthetic off the lot.

BTW I started this thread and my engine is already broken in, it kind of got hijacked but I don't mind I like hearing others opinions and advice on this kind of stuff.

yeah, the engine runs great except on cold starts in open loop it gets a ton of knock retard, but as soon as it goes into closed loop it runs great. I will get a datalog soon, i just need to find a laptop again.
