      to clear a few things up.

      yes I did run it for 20 min at 2k rpm, then changed the oil. before the video, the engine had ran another 2.5 hours at various rpms between 600-3000..

      ya, I spent $1500 on a motor and as soon as it fired it up I started revving. A guy can source all the parts for his hybrid, build it, but then doesn't know break in procedures? please.
      1989 Z24 3.1/3400 hybrid
      14.13@96.69 N/a slick full interior
      maybe my \"dreams\" should be a little higher :P

            the fist time it was broke in on a dyno and the second time it had used pistons/rings in it but I did take it easy for the first day and a half!
