I can't wait to get this sucker to 1200 miles so I can change the oil and rip into it again. I miss hitting 7500rpms, puts a smile on my face!
Exact opposite happened to me. 800 miles deep on the new short block and the oil level is halfway down between the h and l. Gonna wait til 1000 miles and bring it back in.
