Quote: "The biggest reason I didn't contact Ryan was that I was originally taking the heads off for an upgraded port and only seen the lifter parts. Figured that I was going to replace them anyway and yes they were used so why would Ryan do anything about that? The rest of the findings were progressive and got expensive quickly."
So how many passes were made with the broken roller? You didnt detect a skip or a drop in performance? Alrighty.
This engine didn't make any strange noise. I was more surprised than anyone that it sounded fine. Never so much as a pop or mis fire down track and BTW, the last pass it made was it's quickest by almost .10 in the 1/8th mile. It gave me no reason to suspect anything, but it wouldn't have made many more before being catastrophic.
