Notes on assembly lube & break in.

Before You build, soak!!! yep that's right soak,

Crank, cam, lifters,pushrods, rockers, shafts, etc
Build Yourself a cheepie containment, add parts, add enough Fossil Oil to cover parts,
Let heat cycle ... Ambient for You Desert Folks, An 160 deg Oven for the rest of Us.

7 days, 14 hot to cold 'cycles'...

After hot tank, ductile Iron, and some steels, are like sponges.
I am not bashing Moly based pastes,
Soak the iron first, then if there is a 'fo paux' in the build, the moly may 'go away'
but the iron will not.

:D
