Engine additive, start up

[pro53]

Since they do not make the GM (EOS) anymore, what a good additive to add in the oil during break in? using 10/40 rottella and an additive. Flat tappet cam, non roller, need some zinc  :grin:

This isn't it?

No problem George. Summit showed 2 different part numbers, one was available & one was not. But the descriptions both read the same?

Whatcha working on? :grin:

I gotcha... good luck with it. :wink:

Sounds like a story there... :grin:

 

[Patchman]

Oh it is. I'll let George tell it! :smile16:

Yea, JD had bought a CLEVOR motor, was thrown together with mix match shi#( YOU KNOW, ONE OF THOSE GOOD DEAL MOTORS  :smile29: ), then it dropped a valve on us running, the same guy redid it and , its still thrown together. The motor still has (gold) Grade 8 bolts for head bolts  I d o not want to put it back in because, its still junk, when it blows again, I will not be pulling it out, car goes back to his garage.

 

[Devilman]

Aw man that sux. Sounds like a Thunderbolt/I.C.T. situation... :tongue: What is a CLEVOR motor, that a brand or shop name or something?

 

[Patchman]

351 Windsor with Cleveland heads! It wasn't pretty! :smile25:

 

[Devilman]

Gotcha. I googled it in the meantime, turns out its an old school hot rod thing that can work pretty well, when done correctly of course. :grin: Learn something new every day.

This one is not correct! :smile23:

I thought that wouldn't even bolt together.  think.gif

It will!  It's actually a killer combination when done right. This one just wasn't right.

Are you still talking about the engine or someone we know?
