my engine has just been fully rebuilt.....

and before putting it back in i was wondering what running in procedures people reccomend i.ei how many miles before first oil change then 2nd one and so on.......

also what grades if oil to use

do i start with somehting like Millers running in oil for 100miles???

Any help would be greatly appricated
 
we run ours on the dyno for a couple of hours on millers running in oil at varied rpm light to medium loads we than change for the millers 5/40s then start doing power runs and tuning, soon as were happy with the map and everything checks out ok its good to go really, worst thing you can do is tootle around and be over cautious and end up washin the bores
 
heat the engine up. thrash it . change the oil. engine run in.
 
ive been reading up on the jump in and thrash it method, makes good sense, but it will need mapping so how would i go around it, throw on a base map and do it or just tow it straight to the tuner and go from there?
