Wait until the engine starts. Then it is broken in all it needs to be.

11.2 on the big giant slicks. What's the point? Maybe I'll go back to the whitewalls. They are lighter and have less rolling resistance.

What cam did you get?
You should notice one heck of a difference. When we put one in mine, it revved and spooled much better.

I'm with you on the oil bit. I won't use anything but a roller for these motors anymore, except maybe for the one that I have brand new in the box. I might use that one, or sell it. Dunno.

Jack Said I would be fine w a 206/206... This is my only car and I drive it everyday (at least when its running lolol) sell that cam its really not worth it. Roller is the only way to go. Im hoping a 12 sec run on fri but i still gotta mess w the slicks and studs drivshat loop.. But today I will reinstall that pseky cam sensor and see how she sounds... Im nervous and excited all at once... I havent had luck w this car so nothng will surprise me now...
