Roller SBC 350 after a 20 minute break in.

After a good 20+ minute break in period to get her warmed up to 195*, I got her timing set up. I have it set at 34* all in at 3500rpm for initial driving during the rest of the bearing breakin period. The rings seated about 15 seconds into first start, like all of my motors. She has break-in oil with an extra bottle of ZZDP additive for the breakin duration.
After remembering that the timing mark for this year (1987) was at the 12 o'clock location, not the normal 2 o'clock, it sure made getting the timing dialed in A LOT easier today.
Thanks for following along this year long journey. She will soon be going to her new home and powering an Ex-Police Crown Vic, so if you happen across one that sounds a bit lumpier, beware, LOL.

Specs for the cam are below. Its VERY responsive! www.compcams.com/xr288hr
