i've just taken delivery of my freshly rebuilt 4a for my car, and the instructions were fairly simple. its a balance, as to run in new cams its recommended to run the engine at idle for at least an hour, but that then causes glazing on the bores because of the new rings and not a lot of oil ect, so the advice i was given was simply a few hundred km of driving using various conditions, but limit the revs. hehe as my engine is built to rev out to more than 8000 rpm, it was suggested to limit run in revs to 5500-6000 rpm. Very Happy it was stressed to me NOT to let the motor sit at idle for any long periods( over a minute or so) as this would lead to glazing in the bores. other than that he said to do as many full load pulls as possible in third gear, and after 4-500 km, do what i liked with it!
