When I pulled the heads on 6143 there was still some coolant in the block.
Looks like I ended up with about 1/4 cup of glycol in the pan.

It's never been pumped around, so how obsessive should I be about 
flushing it?
Oh yah - I can't pull the pan so I'll have to do a pour-through.

I have a load of Mr Gibbs break-in oil to go into it after it's flushed.
It's only the cam and lifters to break in. How long should I run it 
before changing the oil & filter?
Maybe 20 mins at 2500 rpm?
