remedy is right, just dont keep it at one rpm constantly. You are bedding the rings and bore together. Dont let it idle to warm up either, this promotes glazing in the bores, at idle insufficient oil is thrown up onto the cylinder walls for lubrication. Varying rpm helps to build up chamber gas pressure behind the top rings and loads them sufficiently to help them to seat. If you can get hold of the "repco engine service manual" (I know) its written in the early 70's but based around the repco brabham f1's it has really good microscope photos of different wear patterns on the bores and rings from different run ins.
