I would highly recommend installing the engine on a run in stand and break in the cam and tune engine and check for leaks before installing engine in your coach. At least a 30 minute initial run in then 24 hour cool time and then at least 2 more run in sessions.

Good Morning

I will be picking up my rebuilt engine next week. I've been researching "Engine Break'In Procedures" for rebuilt engines and the recommendations are all over the map, kind of like discussions/recommendations on engine oil.

I'd be interested in hearing what members of the group think would be the best break-in procedure.

Thanks

Ray
