#56623, "RE: Not piston slap - just melty" In response to In response to 16
I was comparing with Kaiser, but I found out he installed JE rings instead of Totalseals.
I seriously doubt the damage was caused by the breakin- I ran this engine REALLY hard for about 7 months before I overheated it and things went downhill from there.
Anyways, I was getting 180 across the board and he was getting 190's.
Could be the JE rings are better, could be the slow and easy breakin is better. Either way, I'm doing it the slow and easy route next time and see what I get.
