Currently I just got my new build back and started up the other day. Build is
2h head
Kiggly beehive titanium springs
3g lifters
Kelford 264/260 cams
Evo 3 16g
Wal 255
Ecmlink v3
NPR pistons for a 2g machines for a 6bolt
New timing everything new waterpump
850 ficc injectors
1g cas
Fidenza flywheel.
Cometic MLS head gasket
Arp studs
With all the new components I want to break the engine in. Currently I'm only running 14lbs on the old tune it had previously.
Is there any baseline tune I should be using to break it in? I'm 99% sure its using speed density as the bov is vented to atmosphere.
I drove it home the other day about 6 miles using engine breaking and downshifting to help seat rings and didnt go above 4k-4.5k rpms. It seemed to run really good although rich, I guess I was expecting more kick? Not sure what's going on thereI just dont want to break anything in a new 10k$ full rebuild. Since there's no real tuning places near me(eastern montana/west north dakota) I'm going to have to do it myself. Wondering what the best way to go about this is? Do I tune at idle then break in? Do i tune a few light pulls to make sure afr is right? Also afr broke will be replacing soon. If anyone who has similar mods could chime in I'd SERIOUSLY appreciate it
