The block did clean up on .030" over. We still haven't figured out what went wrong. 2011 Drag Pak Challenger

We are not sure, but the upper portion of the valve where the lock holds it on broke off, and let the valve drop in.....This was not my engine or car, it was the back up car that was running 10.45..... Old valves finally had enough I guess... Last edited by Dragula; 06/05/16 04:31 PM.
