Am I missing how coolant has to do with breaking in a new cam?
I mean if you're flushing your coolant out thats cool, but I don't get the correlation to the camshaft.
Coolant is a lube for your water pump.
After my cam break in I want to do a coolant flush and oil change, so rather than waste perfectly good coolant I was asking if I can run water for the break in period
i have ran straight water for the past year.Coolant is messy IF there is a leak.
I used to have that cam, souded pretty good and ran great.Went with the edelbrock performer RPM cam, and GT40p heads. I was going to break in the cam, got it started and there was a massive fuel leak at the carb. Too late to mess with it, so I'll do the break in tomorrow. For the 5 seconds it was running and I had my foot in it to keep it from dying, it sounded mean
