Default Allenbuilt Bottem end break in oil
Hello everyone, I have read Inlinepro's instructions for break-in on there built engine packages. I plan on using Amsoil 10w40 for my primary oil, but are you guys breaking your engines in with fully synthetic oil ? Thank you in advance.

Don't break in an engine with synthetic, way to slippery of an oil to use while piston rings are seating
