Hi Neil

I used Graphogen paste when I rebuild my RST engine.

There are other makes on the market but this one was highly recommended to me.

Its a colloidal graphite paste which gives protection when running in all types of precision built parts.

I used it on my big end shells to help bed them in on first fire up and also on the cylinder bores to help the rings bed down.

Cheers

Chris
