    Engine is finished. I forgot to mention that I've lapped the valves and installed new valve springs. I filled the engine with oil and primed the oil system. Worked up a sweat but was happy to see oil coming out of the rockers. Installed the spark plugs and was surprised by a strange restriction that wasn't ever felt with the last engine when I turned it over. It has compression!!
    It's currently sitting installed in the patrol with thanks to my wife. Tomorrow after I bolt everything else up, hopefully I can go for a start and run it in.
    Does anyone have any recommendations for a run in procedure?
    IMO and should be taken with a grain of salt.
