I had the engine in my '58 rebuilt several years ago (about 15). This is a 270 solid lifter engine. I didn't drive it much to really break it in, probably less than 20 miles. Now I have finished the restoration and have started driving it but I noticed it is using some oil, about a quart in the last 300 miles. Is this normal during break-in. I am using 30 wt. oil and have been trying to do highway driving. Any special oil I should be using Any input would be appreciated. Thanks. Chuck
