...  The first one took about 8k miles to really wear in.  Jim told me they build their motors on the tight side.  Runs smooth as a sewing machine.


8,000 miles to completely break in a rebuilt engine seems very strange. 

Can you explain what "they build their motors on the tight side" means?

Thanks,

Gnarls.
