This thing smokes like crazy. I hope it is unseated rings and that it'll go away, but I'm very concerned.

I'll see if Mikey can post the graph.

 

How much break in before the dyno pulls?

 

nice numbers!!

 

40 miles give or take a few.

 

what are the cam specs????

 

I think that is pretty good considering it is a fresh engine and I think the heads are a little small for the ci. You should be very happy!

 

Great Numbers. I'm drawing closer and closer to a combo like that.

 

If it seals up and stops smoking I might have to rethink the SLP thing LOL.

Big if! I could always apply for a Winston sponsorship.

 

Coooool. Is this the first results of the SLP 402? Not bad for the miles. Keep us posted on the smoking issue.

 

who assembled the motor???? was it assembled by SLP?????

 

Based on some earlier threads, I think he bought the complete shortblock from SLP and had Mike at Rapid install the top end... I could be wrong though... the power is great but the smoking ain't!

 

That's correct. SLP claims to build the 402 in house, but I suspect otherwise. Any tips for quick ring seating?

 

Put her in 3rd gear and roll down the highway and go from about start at about 50mph to about 75 and keep going back and forth( or in other words from about 2500 rpm to 4500 or 5000).

Smoking is not good, but the #'s are good. What timing are you running and what octane fuel? My car was dyno'd with very little miles on it and it has never smoked. What color is the smoke?

 

Hello all,
I would hate to be the bearer of bad news, but if I see ANY more than a little puff right at initial fire up, there is grounds for concern. Every engine that I have seen anyone purchase that smokes more than that hardly ever "seals up", but try to look for any indicators of blowby like exessive pressure in the crankcase and the like and if there is, do a leakdown to check the ring seal, if the leakdown gauge reads more 10% try to get your money back! The thing is once the engine has been dynoed, it is for all common purposes broke in. GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR MISSION.

 

great numbers.. good luck on finding the smoking problems.. its most likely the rings.. on a fresh motor i can't say i'm suprised.. call SLP and see what they say.. see if they'll warranty it if it has bad compression (good luck)

 

Sick numbers, i am dead set on doing this setup for my goat. I hope the smoking stops though. Let us know how it turns out.

 

40 miles is no where near sufficient break in time IMO. You should have put at least 200-350 miles on the motor before revving it high on the dyno. Nothing has seated in that motor in only 40 miles.
