Found hair line crack in crank. Just ordered a new stroker crank from back east. Will be here on Monday. Still hoping to be at Elsinore on the 15th & 16th

I wouldn't mind being the last man on Earth - just to see if all of those girls were telling me the truth.

As much as that sucks, aren't you glad you found it now instead of in the middle of the lake after everything is back together?  Gotta look on the bright side, especially with this kind of high dollar hobby stuff.

Good luck.  :D

Two memories came to mind when I read this. First, when I had to install new heads the day before I was leaving on a week long river trip.  Second, when Jordy had to quickly get his motor together for RiverDave's B-Day Bash 2002.  I didn't think he was going to make it at the rate he was posting. :rotflmao

87 Cole, even if you don't get the motor together, come to Elsinore anyway.  They'll be plenty of rides there already. :D

Good Luck with your motor. :)

Hey Doug, I hope to have the Dam thing completed. I'll work on it in the evenings all week. Once I get the new crank everything needs to be balanced again. Turning 7800 RPM it's got to be right. I'll still show up either way to put a few names to faces. TWYL

If quizzes are quizzical, what are tests???

Rounded off a few lobs on the cam. With all the metal going through the block. I replaced the valve train with full Crane roller assembly. Lots of presssure on the old solid lifters. 13:1 compression didn't help the situation either

That sucks, you went roller?? I am kicking around the idea of doing that, if I break another motor I am going roller, no break in time and big hp.
