Talking The motor is in and running!

I got the car back and it is running!
It is too loud and I am thinking about going with a more quite muffler and running tail pipes.
I also have to get it tuned and let the motor break in.

I got on it a little 1 time when I left the shop and got sideways real quick.
It just obliterated the nitto drag radials like they were some cheap pos tire.

I am getting a lot of blow by and can feel a lot of air coming out where the pcv valve goes in the valve cover and I never noticed it with the 302, is that normal for a new motor and should it get better as the motor breaks in and the rings seat better?
