Weld, I am in total agreement! Smokes was a lot of good things racing wise, but a small block chevy building genius
 attention to detail was incredible. First time we saw one of his stroker motors TRASH a BIG blocked chevelle, needed a shovel to collect all the tongues laying round on the ground, and his motors would LAST!

This topic could support another thread for me. I love how he had figured out that a 6" rod and a 1.72:1 rod/stroke ratio could rev to the moon and not come apart. The early SBC 302 was closer to 1.90:1, but I seem to remember that was pushing things too far.
Sorry for the threadjack.

never had a problem with mototune method of break in on cars, I've never personally met anyone who had the patience to follow a factory recommended break in and doubt most used bikes had it followed either.
for the TT it will probably be broken in similar to described here. -with fresh oil, on and off the throttle accelerating and engine braking getting incrementally harder on the throttle and higher into the rpm. -cool down, then spend a couple hours at lower speeds riding off road. -then cool down oil change and hit the roads like I normally would, just no long distance endurance runs on the highway for a while. 20 minutes here and there should provide some good heat cycling. while commuting to work, but its going to have to deal with speeds over 55 for about 10-15 minutes at a time.

Dude, you're replying to a thread that's over 5 years old. Who knows what the manual said back then. I know you're excited, but you don't need to take up the entire first page of the forum. |
