Default New 346 Break in Procedure and when can I spray Nitrous?

Getting a New Lingenfelter 346 with Forged Pistons since my engine took a turn for the worse. It was the #7 Piston that went as a result of likley a bad ring that finally gave out.

I know about the SDPC 402 etc, but it would have required several extra things (heads etc.) and woudl have cost a bunch .


A new engine was cheaper alternative to messing with repairing things.

How long should I break in the motor before I dyno it, and then I have a 100 shot wet kit. How long should I wait until I bring the car back to dyno it and run it with the nitorus?? It is a NX Dual Nozzle 100 shot wet Kit.

I was going to wait several hundred miles just to make sure things are working properly before I bring her back to spray it as I don't want to blow up a new engine.

Any suggestions.

I would at least what for 1000 mi and don't use synthetic oil use conv.oil with a GM additive called E.O.S. to help seat the rings.

Wrong Forum. This is for LS2/LS7 stuff. Your is an Internal Q for LS1/LS6 stuff.
