its all fine now, ive installed the flywheel and clutch, and ive wraped the head to keep temp up, will consider useing the Pro's method and run the engine making sure it is 5050 in richness and good idle...once it has come to a the suggested temp rev 1/4 to set the piston in and then switch of, let it cool and then heat up and start and run on the ground for a tank and do that for 3-4tanks and should be good by tank 8 to race tune.

one of the guys at my track was running his Vspec and it has just run in but he's had the issue of loss of compression. too easy to turn over when in buggy, im gussing it ll be alright once its totally run in.

he may have not set the piston in properly.
