- Extra clearance may be required with aftermarket connecting rods.
- Drop-in cam is applicable in MOST cases, you MUST check clearances. Especially if a head has been planed, block decked,valve recessions..etc. Always check clearances before starting.
Break-In Procedure:

- Oil all bearing journals and lifter barrels.
- Always turn engine over by hand before starting, check for clearances and proper timing location.
- Fire up to 1800-2000 RPM for 18-20 minutes.
Zinc Additive: Most oil companies have taken out a percentage of additives that are meant for anti-scuffing for break-in on flat tappet cams. A zinc additive must be added to your oil before you fire up your engine for the first time.
