If'n it wuz me, I'd break 'er in on flatter roads than
the road to Hot Springs!
Get another couple hunnerd miles on the new motor
goin' east on 30, then north on 430 and back a couple
of times...
My new 1641 was hotter than usual until I got about
1,000 miles on her. I can run for hours now and still
hold the dipstick (gingerly though).
