Blackstone always does a real nice job in explaining what they see. Not just giving the raw details, but also a human readable synopsis of what they found. Oil analysis is an effective method of determining your engine's health, including rings, valves, bearings, injectors, etc. They can tell a lot by looking at your oil.

In this case, my engine is reported to have less break-in metal content than what is average for the identical engine at 8500 miles. (Metal content should decrease as break-in progresses). I believe that this indicates that the break-in is going well or that tolerances in the initial assembly were better than average... In any case, they call it "better than average", so I am happy...
