I fired up my motor last night for about 30 seconds to get it ready for the cam to be broken in today. I started the car got the rpms to 2500 for about 7 minutes before I had to shut it off because the temp got up to 225 or so turned it off then temp rose to about 240 and then cooled back down. Drained some water out added more coolant let it cool down to about 100 degrees and ran it again at 2500 for another 7 minutes or so before the temp hit 230 again.
My question is although I didnt get to break the cam in for a full 15 minutes at 2500, I did break it in for 15 minutes but it took 2 times to do it. Will this cause my cam not to break in or go flat? I hope not, I have spent to much time and money and dont want to pull the cam out in a thousand miles.
Im sure someone out there has had to break there cam in the sane way I did, did it cause any damage or did the cam go flat on you? Should I worry about it or to be safe should I run it one more time at 2500 for about 6 minutes?
Thanks any help or ideas would be great (also I had no thermostat in it)Sounded great though and the neighbors didnt seem to mind.
