JasonsBanshee Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 Just curious, is the break in process different for a nikasil cylinder vs a steel sleeved cylinder? I know some do heat cycles, some do not, some do break in procedures and again some do not. That's not what I'm asking. I'm wondering if Nikasil changes anything when it comes to getting a new motor up and going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camatv Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 make sure no leaks do a jet test. run it hard in all gears if you can more load the better. i have pictures of pistons one year old with the easy smeeze heat cycle break in style theat have so much blowby they almost look coated. then hard break ins after 3 years that lost comp due to ring wear and minimal blow by... in my personal hands on exp the hard break in is way better..

Finch Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 break-in on nikasil or steel sleeve= 5 minute warm up then however long it takes to go from trailer to start line or hillthat's how I do it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
