Default Car down, Car down...

Hello there all, just a quick update. Been missing some meets and evidently some compression too.

Guys at 1st Class Auto just called and informed me of number one and three cyl are less than 90 LBS compression. Culprit is likely piston rings after a week and a half investigation. As you can imagine I'm thrilled as this will be a multi thousand dollar replacement.

The engine has 90K on it. Guess there's never been a better time to 2.4 it all the way eh? (Kidding). When you see the GOVt, ask them for a bailout for me too will you?

Hope to see you when we're up and running again soon.

Sorry to hear Pat! Glad to hear from you instead of us thinking and worrying that you've gone on walkabout again.

Hope your baby is up and running soon!

Got a 2.4 built and ready for turbo.

Knife edge crank, ABSC sleeved block, 9-1 pistons, Eagle Rods, all parts including the block are cryoed. I even have a fully cryoed and built head with 1mm oversized Supertech valves, Supertech dual springs.

Can be delievered to 1st Class for the right price. You can have the highest HP and torque on the block.
