About to fire up a BBC for break-in, any tips?
Ok so I'm down to the check list. I've got a '66 402 that's about to be started. Most likely this weekend. Fan shroud still needs to be modified to clear the march serpentine pullies and all the fluids need to be filled. That and the 2 year old gas needs to be drained out of the tankYep, it's been that long. After that I'm going to prime the engine set the distributor back in... and turn the distributor til it fires?? Or is there a better way to get it timed before you start it?? It's got a solid lifter cam, and a mechanical advance Mallory Unilite distributor, if that helps. Any advice would be appreciated.
I believe this was somewhere around 2015, Rick, Rosie and Johnboy
