shacks510 Posted October 24, 2015 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 What's your take on seating rings? Drive the piss out of it I presume? ..... because I don't have the patience to be pussy footing it. I wanna work those fuckers. 1 Quote Link to comment
Draker Posted October 24, 2015 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 I drove mine hard for the first bit, they all seated fine. Just stayed out of constant RPMs.. lots of recommendations out there on how to do it.. 1 Quote Link to comment
shacks510 Posted October 24, 2015 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 I drove mine hard for the first bit, they all seated fine. Just stayed out of constant RPMs.. lots of recommendations out there on how to do it.. I was reading all over. You're never going to find a straight answer. I did see more saying to drive hard. When it comes the time, I'll just go up on the freeway on a Saturday/Sunday morning so I can do my thing without being bothered with traffic and do a bunch of hard pulls in different rev ranges with engine braking inbetween. 1 Quote Link to comment

Busta Nut Posted October 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 When all is said and done....drive it like you stole it.....but don't over rev..... .....freeway is pretty hard to break an engine in. Broke in my first one on the way to Canby..... ......this was tough becuz you're NOT suppose to sustain engine rpm for more than a minute at a time..... ......so I was constNly passing people....then they would pass me.....then I'd be pass them again....and so on. Pretty annoying.... ......I say find your self a nice empty windy road and have at it!!!! 2 Quote Link to comment
shacks510 Posted October 24, 2015 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 I don't have any decently windy roads close to me. Id have to go a minimum of 20 miles away to get to one. I said freeway on a weekend morning because there's no one out. I could speed up and slow down without worrying about other cars. Quote Link to comment
TENDRIL Posted October 24, 2015 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 I set my rings on the free way with a 2hr drive, although I had other problems, my rings set and had full compression on all cylinders, pretty much took Datsun mikes engine break in advice, on it pretty hard for the first 30 mins lots of 3rd gear pulls and 4th gear engine break s to a safe rpm to do another 3rd gear pull to about 5k and keep it there for 20 seconds than shift cruise for about 10 mins and than all over again for about an hour stopped at a buddy's for about an hour, than did it all again for another hour Quote Link to comment
