headin to the hills this weekend but i just rebuilt my motor with overbore and wisecos.

just wondering if i should stay off the NOS for the first tank or if its ok to give it a couple shots for a a very short time..

maybe to much blowby until the rings are seated properly?

I agree here with the mod man, stay off the juice till the parts "gel" with each other. Let the rings find their place, give her a little extra oil for that first tank, and save the juice till you know everything is working properly and everything is seated.

Better to have a well-running sled in Jan.-Feb. with the bottle than starting over next week case you wanted to "see what she would do...." hahaha

Remember to load that motor well to seat them new rings. I'd leave the bottle at home for the first ride out.
