    Cool

    Ok Guys

    Today I just fired the 5.3L sucker and it was as crisp as an Oreo!!!!!!!!!

    Took some pics and a vid that I'll post latter.

    I'll break in the "OldSkool" way....u know me

    Fired it up and keep it around 1400rpm and as soon the temp was on norm I place it around 1800rpm for half hour. After that I took it to 3000rpm to hear strange sounds but all ok. then back to idle and turn it off for a total cool down. Tomorrow I'll check everythingn for leaks and so. And take it for the Break-in on highway.

    Prelubed and started with 10w30 as thiner oil. Use it tomorrow for the highway test and then throw it and place some 20w50 cause of my clearence on the bearings
