Ok, I see what you mean now by the 50% throttle, all is well, carry on.

Just no full throttle runs, until you've ran at least a tank of fuel mix through the engine & dont ever just jump on & blast off, not until you "cant" hold your bare hand on the side of that cylinder from it being hot.

Roger that. Don't need cold seizures.

I'll make sure it is well broke in

So far I've done the three idle cycles and complete cool down.  I then did a few runs with hitting a max throttle of certain percentages.  50%, 70%, 80%, 90%.  After each of these I've let it cool down.  Before the 90% I swapped my very rich 192 main for a rich 190 main.  I also found that I have a slight stress crack in my lower radiator hose so I decided to order some new 87-89 radiator hoses that fit that style PWR radiator, which I have on my 86.  I also had the normal spitting at the header/chamber junction so I pulled it apart today and sealed it up with high temp rtv.  While I was at it I decided to check my needle due to some lack of power in the mid range and my needle was on the 4th notch.  Dropped it back down to the 3rd and also placed a fresh 8 series plug in.

Prior to all of this I finally plugged my air box snorkel hole.  I used a Meguires extreme shine spray cap that I cut down.  I then epoxied it on.  Looks good and cost me nothing extra.

Depending on my recent hamstring pull I will or will not run it tomorrow for a 100% run.  Depending on time I might start plug chops.  First I need more fuel since I will have put 4 gallons through it during break in.
