Engine Break-in...smokes a little
Hi everyone,
I have a question about engine break in. I put a new rebuilt 350 in my 72 camaro. After I hooked up everything I fired it up and got the engine up quickly to about 2000 RPMs. After about a minute or so I noticed some small amounts of smoke coming out of the valve cover hole. Well I became worried and shut the motor off.
Is this normal? Does this happen because the rings have not set properly? Or might I have a serious problem. Im sooo worried.
This is my first ever engine break-in so if you can think of anything else that I need to know I would be most appreciative.
Thanks,
Dan
