Cool.  Look at those headers glow.  I wonder what the top rpm was near the end of that procedure?  Don't forget, that type of procedure to seat rings is typical if you are going to rebuild an engine every week.  very cool anyway.

I measured the sound on the video and got a peak at ~23000RPM. Not too bad for a V8!
