Default RE: New Engine Break In

Which is where two Belray products, Motul, and Redline fall into the lineup. The H1R can be mixed from 30 to 50-1, the MC-1 can be mixed from about 40 to 1 out to 100-1, with the Redline and Motul 800 variable from 40 to about 80-1.

Without debating which ratio or what oil is better for the job, I can certainly understand why people that sell engines would suggest 100-1 or greater ratios. Shoot, by the time it's worn out after hundreds of short run cycles you would be hard pressed to find the reason why.
