RE: smoking after a rebuild



I rebuilt the 426 in my Polara a few months ago and it smokes a little 
blue at idle, but isn't noticable on the road. It's probably got around 
500 miles on it now, but I don't remember what rings I put in it (gettin 
old sucks!). The cylinders WERE bored correctly, though. Maybe I dind't 
break it in right??? I romped on it pretty good early on, though.
