Sorry guys, it is a solid cam


Scott is Magna Fluxing the crank to check for cracks and then we'll see about sending it out to be cut or not.

It all depends on how the crank checks out and as of this post I haven't heard yet

All the plugs looked the same. IIRC it was the second bearing that came out.

I think it was the blue paint that did your engine in. I tried to tell you...

Bill, sorry to see this after all the work you put into it. I hope you can get it back toghther soon so you can get back out there but at least for now you can really focus on the yellow car for dad and the jr's for the kids and still have fun. I do have to ask though did you not have any kind of chip/rev limiter to stop it from going over 7k

Yeah, I probably should have stuxk with the old shade of blue

Russ, We were actually looking to trap just over 7000 but not quite that high. The only chip I had over 7000 was an 8000 so I put that in.

Looks like I'm shopping for some MSD pills now that you mention it.

Should have painted it green , then it would have been fine. Sorry to see this, Bill.

For my little 340 I set my limiter at 6,200. I'm wussy.
