Ok, tore down the Grey Ghost's engine to determine what happened on the way to Wickenburg ... images below:
I am missing something: (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i239.photobucket.com-1696-1273510232.1.jpg) Oooooo, that hurts: (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i239.photobucket.com-1696-1273510232.2.jpg) Bits and pieces: (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i239.photobucket.com-1696-1273510232.3.jpg) Tested all factors on the CIS and flow on the injectors is within 5% of each other. Analysis: Cylinders 1 & 2 on a flat six are the poorest cooled of all. Apparently, #1 got hot and detonated (poor gas, bad timing) and broken ring lands / rings were the result. Oh well, now in search of a good used Mahle P&C. I will be adding a Cylinder Head Temperature Gauge to #1 cylinder to monitor temps from now on. Thank you Ferry, where ever you are in the universe ............... |

Here you go Cap'n. I have also seen discussions about a company that manufactuers "redesigned" cooling tins for the early sixes that provide for better cooling. I don't recall their name off hand but one of the unique features is that they can be installed with the cam towers in place.
