Engine Break-In Procedure
Use or break-in oil or conventional (non-synthetic) 10w30 oil with zinc additive for the first 500 miles of operation. Do not drive for long periods at any single speed, always vary your speed. Do not tow a trailer or put other heavy loads on the vehicle. It is best to avoid long periods of idling during this period. Check the engine oil and coolant levels daily.
Engines with flat tappet hydraulic cams only - Run the engine between 2,000 and 2,500 RPM's, with no-load on the engine for the first 30 minutes. Let the engine cool down completely and repeat process 2-3 more times. Do not idle the engine for any extended period at this time, this is critical to break in the camshaft.
At 500 Miles change the engine oil and filter using conventional (non-synthetic) oil with a zinc additive. Check fuel and ignition settings, adjust valves (where applicable). Drive the next 500 miles normally, without high RPM's (below 5000 RPM), hard use, or extended periods of high loading or long periods of idling.
Change the oil and oil filter again at 1,000 miles. Continue using conventional (non-synthetic) oils and zinc additive, until about 4,000 miles. At that point, you may run a quality 10w30 synthetic oil if you choose. Use of oil with zinc or a zinc additive for the life of your engine is recommended.

Will this engine work with a carb ? the one i have now was converted
Can I install this in my 1983 Chevy 4x4 k10 with a 700r4 transmission? I plan on running the Holley sniper 2 efi with my msd ignition. I currently have a small block 350 with a serpentine belt setup and want to make sure this engine will bolt directly In.
Can i run the engine with out having the chip burned for the first 100 miles or so till i get the chip burned? Will it damage the engine to run with out ?
Will it fit a 93 c1500 tbi
Does that engine fit a 1995 Chevy suburban 4 wheel drive k1500
Can you ran a carburetor on this engine?
The OE water pump? Reverse or clockwise rotation for this motor ?
Just to get clarification, will my OEM TBI chip need to be replaced with a custom-burned chip in order to have this engine run properly? Or is this just recommended for optimal performance?
