[Tigers] Engine run in

[Carmods at aol.com]

Tim,
 
In addition to all the other good advice you have gotten, I would recommend 
 you prime the lubrication system before you start the engine.  With oil in 
 the pan, I install a distributor that has the drive gear removed and drive 
 it with an electric drill. You can tell when the oil pressure builds up by 
the  rise in torque to drive the pump. This will insure that the pump, oil  
passages, bearings and lifters are full before you start the engine.
