Break in gone bad... 360

Not enough timing will make them HOT.

When breaking them in, I always suggest get it up to rpm quickly and then time it right away to 36-40* BTDC.

Once you get the heat monster going, especially on break in, it's hard to get it back under control.

I also always check new themostats in a pot of water to make sure it opens.

Hope things aren't hurt.
