Lots of ways- one way is to Lubriplate bearings, journals, piston pins. Start engine with 10 wieght and tuneup checks about an hour. Drain oil, replace with 40 or 50 weight, warm up about 5-10 minutes, then go full throttle 50 to 100 miles in circle or several runs 1/4 mile and back. If engine holds together you might make enough money to pay for rebuild, side bets pay for hauling, supper and beer. Little trophies make good paperweights. Bearing/journal clearence tends to be a bit toward maximum instead of minimum. RN.
