I assembled the engine in my garage. Nobody to blame but me I guess. For What? I don't know. Not gonna sweat it.. Probably just start over. I've had some real cool offers to help me out, and some very good people sent PMs with advice. I appreciate it

I think I'll step away from the racing thing and go back to the street stuff. 540" Pump Gas Engine. I'm not going anywhere yet...

But I am updating my " Lessons Learned " Book. I'm on Chapter 17..

Always sad to see this kind of damage. Its taken me a year to get parts rounded up after the wifes swallowed a valve. good luck with the next one.
