Running in the stroker

RG · 20-11-2006, 02:39 PM

I'm just after a bit of advice. As some of you will know my car is off the road atm due to some "technical difficulties". I get it back in a week or so with the new stroker and I was just wondering what the best way of running it in would be. She is an AUII XR8 now with a 347. Any advice would be appreciated.

Having a roller cam which needs no break in,they just need about half an hour or so with varying load at varying revs,to bed the rings in,then go for it.
Use a good quality mineral oil for the break in as well.

Great, so it should be right and ready by the time I pick it up. It has to go on the dyno before I get it so that the Unichip can be tuned, should be a good enough run in for her.

Yes we run them in on the dyno,if the rings arent bed in then they wont be,then straight into tuning and power runs.
