Well I got to break in the O.S. engine today. I used the heat cycle method. I had a hard time starting it and when I did it would'nt idle. She was PIG RICH from the factory. I had to lean out the LSN to get her to idle. When I ran the car it had those gargling sounds due to a super rich HSN setting and was limited in rpm's. Once I started leaning that out she woke up. I never got her over 210 deg. so I know my settings were safe and I always saw a trail of smoke. I guess I'm still used to the original G3.0 settings. The manual for the O.S. motor has different high and low speed needle settings by a few turns. Made me a little nervous at first thinking everything was going to be to lean until I was spurting raw fuel out the exhuast. I haven't got a chance to fine tune the engine yet to evaluate it's performance though.
Sorry to bring back an old thread, but my OS came about 1 1/2 turns off from factory. It took me ages to find out. It made me look like a noob.
MORE SPEED
