"Live from" Topeka LODRS D5-5

Well, our weekend is done, unexpectedly. Dropped a lifter roller retaining pin and it found its way between the lobe and roller. Didn't break anything, but wiped the roller and the lobe pretty good. Regrind and get ready for Earlville!

Mike. I saw where he qualified. Knew something was wrong. At least you aren't too far from home.

Motor is coming out tomorrow or Sunday and shipping the cam to Comp to get reground. Should be back together in time for "Billy's Big Blowout" in Earlville!!

Dad and I received very good news today, however. Dad has found a donor for a kidney, so will be getting a second chance on life real soon!

Thanks to those who have provided encouragement this past year. He's been through hell and back, a heart attack,kidney failure, dialysis 3 days a week,still working in a 100+ degree shop and still loves to strap himself in the Monte.
