RE: what type of lubricant do you use
Dunno what the deal was with that big block then. I used a whole can on the crank journals(Rods only, the main caps were still bolted down and had an oil film left) and 3/4ths of a can on the cylinder bores, but they didn't last a week. Oh well. Sold that to someone who's putting it in a Fox mustang and aiming for mid 10s. Shouldn't disappoint.
