Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant
With the gage pins the ring land was fairly constant with a loose spot or two. I guess that’s why an engine picks up power after everything gets to liking each other.

Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant
Destroyed the ProTrans in the pink car. Sent trans to Joel’s, installed spare, all in getting car ready for the backup role. New plugs, re wire, (just for you Cody), adjust valves. What’s this? Very little compression on at least two holes one on each side. Leak test was double our President approval rating, so now it’s off with the heads........of the car.

Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant
Larry,
I don't mean to LIKE your blow by number but your analogy is priceless. So I must say you were still very quick with less than a totally sealed piece under the hood. That Pink Pack is a bad *** racer. Kudos to you. |

Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant
When the car broke the trans, the rev limiter did not catch it soon enough and bent a few valves. Of course some on each head. With the damage, it would be lucky to start and would not be able to run the index.

Do you leak check with the engine dead cold or after running it?

Re: Dumbo The Flying Elephant
Back to Dumbo. On further tear down the pull down side of the crankpin needs to look just a little better. The bearings look great only one spot to look at and figure out why.
