please do yourself a favour, next time building an engine do not, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCE, leave it idling FOR ANY AMOUNT OF TIME during its first half hour running. start it, rev it to at least 2000 to 2500 rpm, ideally under load. Else your pistonrings will glaze and will never seat propperly to the bore, resulting in the engine burning oil for ever. been there too and seen it.
So I must ask, You Red or Yellow? Because I am stupid guy. I see China, which must be Red. But how can Red do V12? Should be many I4.😂 I even I in retirement now make V12 run and even I drive it. But only, thorough maintenance: set valve lash, replace all hoses. But NO taking cylinder heads off. Aw, GEE!! So many hours. Who will drive this kings car?

lol I am not in China. This kind of classic car is more likely to be toys instead of vehicles.
