ok i got finished with the break in 2 hours ago and I took the head off to look at the piston and its still very silver with a "C" brown spot....which i know is normal....but the "C" is very faint and i wanted to know if thats normal for a motor with 5 tnaks......just kinda paraniod due to low money and no job.

I broke the motor in super rich......lots and lots of smoke...i pu a sock on the haed and temps were allways 205-240..........i got it to 297-301 once and shut it off imeadiatly so i think i did it good.....and the piston is still hard to turn over by hand and still gets stuck at TDC and I have to use a flat head too turn it.

so does this all sound like it went pretty good?
