For about the first Gallon of fuel, I heat the engine up to 200 Degrees to take the pressure off the internals. I have done this for my last few engines. My first Limited 3 Port lasted me 10 Gallons before the compression finally went. Thats is a true 10 Gallons, Under race conditions. I just broke in a new Limited 3 Port, about 1/2 a Gallon on it right now. I'm getting 9min. to a tank with the Dynamite 053. Should be able to get the 10min mark after its completely broke in. Just remember, preheat your engine, it will last much longer.
