To dyno or not to dyno?
Would have been nice to see some HP and TQ numbers, but I did build my own run-in stand to break in my 340 and make sure everything was OK before putting it in the chassis. Good thing I did! Machine shop fitted one piston too tight and engine seized when it came back to idle after cam break in. Tore back down, cam and lifters looked great. Took block back to machine shop. They were able to hone cylinder and save/refit piston. Second run-in went great. Ida been really pissed if I had dropped it in chassis, hooked everything up and had it happen.
