Lots of ways- one way is to Lubriplate bearings, journals, piston pins. Start engine with 10 wieght and tuneup checks about an hour. Drain oil, replace with 40 or 50 weight, warm up about 5-10 minutes, then go full throttle 50 to 100 miles in circle or several runs 1/4 mile and back.

Bearing/journal clearence tends to be a bit toward maximum instead of minimum. RN.
