Well I have over 300 miles on the new engine and after working out a few bugs all is well. I was concerned that oil and coolant temps would be high because of the block filler, but everything is VERY normal. I got the EGT gauge working again and cruising temps are where they were before the build, but when I hammer down it gets HOT.......quick. Going to have to get my water injection setup finished and hooked up before I run any race programs. The power is amazing, very, very smooth and strong as hell. And finally mileage seems comparable to what it was with the 238's in there, but have yet to hit the open road and get any highway mpg's.

All in all I am very satisfied with the results.
