Just ordered 12 qts Joe Gibbs BR30 from Jegs for $7.99 each ;-)

 

Break in oils have increased levels of zddp (Zinc dithiophosphate) in ppm
Torco makes an oil for break in,joe gibbs,rotella has higher level of zinc,chevron delo,amsoil ect.

 

that's the schedule I followed but used Brad Penn Break-In Oil

 

good info right here guys, i wish i was breaking in a new motor...

 

I have been told the same as the HKE quote. But use cheap regular oil from oreillys with a zinc additive for the same time. Dont use synthetic oil till the rings seat.

 

True

Also WOT to break in a engine? Freaking nutz

 

the cylinder walls act as a light sand paper to seat the rings (take the high spots off of the rings. without putting a load on the rings you're just polishing the cylinder wall and your rings arent getting seated correctly. the only way to fix that is to pull the motor apart and rehone the cylinder to rough it up.

 

I know what your talking about, I just prefer 3-4 range rather than WOT

 

WOT is more fun!

 

My Exxon cc statement confirms that I like WOT....
