Engine Break-In Procedure
Use or break-in oil or conventional (non-synthetic) multi-viscosity oil with zinc additive for the first 500 miles of operation. Avoid hard acceleration for sustained periods. Periodically change the engine speed while driving to help seat the rings. While the engine is running, be sure to check oil pressure and coolant temperature, and check for fluid leaks, such as oil, transmission fluid, fuel, and coolant/antifreeze. Also listen for any unusual sounds. Should you hear an unusual sound, shut the engine off, check for the source, and correct it.
Engines with flat tappet cams only - Start the engine and bring it to 2,000 RPM. Get the engine running smoothly. Then vary the engine speed from 1,800-2,200 RPM in a slow acceleration/deceleration cycle for 30 minutes. This is necessary to provide adequate oil splash and lifter rotation to properly mate each lifter to its lobe.
At 500 Miles change the engine oil and filter using conventional (non-synthetic) oil. After 6,000 miles, synthetic oils can be used in your engine. For flat tappet cam engines, continued use of oil with zinc or a zinc additive for the life of your engine is recommended.

Specifications:
What size and type of carburettor is supplied with engine. Do you know the overall height dimension from sump to top of carby, fitting into 55 chev 210 sedan RHD
Will this engine fit my 1991 454 SS pickup? Based on the C1500 model.
Are these engines streetable or mostly for the track? Want something that is not a trailer queen. Current have a 502 with blower that gave up the ghost.
Iam thinking of buying this engine how ever I do not need carb or distribator how much off 9999.99 price?
Does this engine have a boss for a mechanical fuel pump or does it need an electric fuel pump? What fuel pressure and flow rate was used when dyno’d?
The details say this engine has a 2 piece rear main seal but the overview says it has a 1 piece. Which is right? And does this engine come with an HEI distributor? If it does and a want to swap it out for a non HEI will it void the warranty?
Can I use the flex plate, starter, water pump, etc from my 1971 Chevy Mark IV 454? Does this engine require any type of computer/ control unit? The specs say the power band of 1800 to 6000 rpm so why do I have to have a 2200+ stall converter?
Will the oil pan clear on a 1968 Camarillo with a stock chassis
