so is this going to be daily driven or a play truck? cuz that could make a big difference as far as when 500 miles is hit
Do a burnout while filling up lmao!
Builds are horrible for the wallet

A nice 400 mile break-in trip in 6hrs. By noon it could be ready for burnouts

The truck is running and we have been working out a few loose ends here and there but we can already tell just from idle that the truck will make crazy power...
I'm a huge fan of easy break ins... So you guys are gonna have to sit tight until I feel the motor is ready to unleash hell
But... But.... But....
Start it, let the coolant temp get up a bit, then full load full throttle on a dyno is how a Diesel engine should be broke in...
If they idle too much (slobbering away), don't get hot, or combustion pressures aren't high enough after a fresh rebuild the cylinders will glaze up and you'll have oil consumption/ blow by issues... Those rings need to seat against the cylinder wall and the only way to properly do that is with heat and combustion pressure...
At work after an inframe over haul trucks are immediately dynoed for 2+ hours for the break-in procedure...
I'm not very good at explaining stuff but all I know is this is a diesel...
2 stroke dirt bikes are a little different story.
