Well,
in theory, you're right-
bolt 'em on and go.
If it's a fresh motor, I'd richen the mix just a bit
until it breaks in- just to be safe.
I've had good luck with the 'high cylinder pressure' break in for ring seating-
but that's a bit controversial.
You'll probably find that it'll need to flow more fuel-
but then, the new engine might be able to run a bit leaner,
so i could be wrong. It'll certainly be close enough to get you started!
no help here, huh?
