Next time gonna try a jp-3 or jp-4 and carbon clutch shoes. The temps were 240 to 260.
You will get better fuel millage as the engine gets closer to being full broken in. I would figure on about a gallon to get one of these fully run in just an fyi. Run times are also highly dependent on pipe choice and driving style and being upfront I have never seen nor ran a 0403 pipe so I'm not sure what those do lol! Just curious what engine were you running before and how do you think that the B5 compares to it?
