Rob just called me. Engine let go this morning in Stockton, on the way to the autocross. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Sounds like a piston skirt broke off and trapped itself between the crank and case, and then blew its way out. Now he's got to wait for a tow truck. Ooooooh man. Poor Rob. I'm sure he'll have some pictures (with garbage cans) when he get's it back to his place. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hissyfit.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/barf.gif) |

I'm sorry to see that. Wish I could offer you advice. The only thing I can say is the sick feeling in your stomach doesn't last too long. I've got a case sitting in my garage all prepped for 98's and above, standard bearings, galley plugs drilled and tapped. I could send it your way. Old smokie is sitting in the woodshed and runs.
