Well, today I got another tank through it, the pinch and compression are holding the same as yesterday, the compression is still really good when hot (burned the crap out of my finger untill I realized I had gloves for turn marshalling)but the friction of the pinch is still light when the plug is out. The engine runs really well, I bumped the throttle to stop at 50% after another 3 minute run at 25%, I'm guessing its gonna be ok, but I don't think it's going to last over 5 gallons, but we'll see. I wonder how long my modded engine will last if it has the same pinch issue as this one, we all know they work alot harder than stock. Just figured I'd update everone on how its going.... I'll post tomorrow to let you all know how the final break in goes, hopefully I'll have more time to run it, I'd like to finish the break in and get it closer to a race tune so I can finish the rest of the gallon at the not-so-close new track being built.

Take care all....
