ECI Cermanil Break in on Pitts

[acroeric]

Anyone have trouble getting rings to seat on ECI Cerminal cylinders? The engine in my Pitts was just overhauled and at 6 hours the compressions are really low and there is lots of oil coming out the breather. I just bought it but the previous owner was flying it at 2500 RPM for break in. I suspect the engine was not developing enough manifold pressure to break them in. Any experiences are appreciated.
