Leland...Your not confused, although you may be well mixed....Different timing lites may show a slightly different reading. When breaking in an engine you want to keep rings pressed against cylinder. I constantly rock with gas pedal always moving up and down which pushes rings out to cylinder. I did that for 500mi.never going into 5th gear, slowly raising rpms every 100 miles. I did this all on open roads till it became 4th gear at 3,500 - 4,000 for 100 miles. It is boring and you may get seasick but will wind up with great comp./blowby numbers and 2,000 - 3,000 miles per quart of oil. I changed oil filter after 1st warm up to remove rebuilding lube. There is more, if you like my act contact me..Keep Rock'en..
