Michael,
What kind of oil are you using? If it is synthetic the rings most likely wi=
ll never seat. I use a good grade of petroleum oil for the first 1K miles. =
Limiting the rpm to 3 K for the first couple hundred miles. Then slowly go t=
o higher rpm for the remainder. Now I do break in's for longevity so there w=
ill be other preferred methods.

Pay it Forward
Thanks Frank
