Good. Thank you. I will take under advisement. I was wondering what to do with the lifter bores. Oil sounds right. My engine machinist was big on using Driven brand oil. Driven has the largest amount of zinc etc needed by the moving contact surfaces. I would guess there are some posts/threads around here on fordsix.com discussing what oil to use, and what break-in oil to use these days. (I'll look when I get a chance.) He said that the Valvoline VR1 high zinc doesn't have as much zinc as it used to contain. Also, I was surprised by the machinist's recommendation to use CRC dry moly spray lube for the lifters.
The cylinders have been honed .030 and crank polished. My engine builder installed the new pistons & rings and crank. Based on Bubba22349 brilliant help, I had the block decked and the pistons are up .009. Pistons and crank are all oiled. This has been a very calculated build in my opinion. Again, Bubba has been such a great help in planning and calculating. It is the little stuff I lack since I am not an engine assembler.
