Newbie Rebuilt Engine Advice
I just did a rebuild on the engine of my 72' C10 and I'm going by the shop tomorrow to look at everything and get the run down of the specs.
I have a 350 V8 4 bolt main and when I got it, it needed repair badly(wouldn't hold oil, all kinds of metal in it). From what my guy said, they did a 30 over on it, new valves, springs, cam, etc. I just got a picture of it (attached), he just painted it yesterday and will be putting it in today and tomorrow. My question is do you guys have any advice on how to treat it well and ensure the life of it? Breaking it in, do's or don'ts? Should I drive it like a grandma for a couple hundred miles? Any suggestions or info from some vets would be awesome!
