Default just put 50 miles on my new engine build and!!!

i shit ma pants when i first went out in my car as some of you now iv had to rebuild it twice due to a numpty who gave me the wrong bearings for a regrind crank, any way after replacing the crank with a forged one and race bearings all seems well took it out yesterday and it ran like a dream but was very carefull when i went on boost, just kinda brought the boost on a little then changed gear..
