Car is done. I warped the head and had some sticking valves, but the short block was good thank god.
Edit: I got a trick valve job and a milled head, so should be making more power and higher compression. Kevin Helms says block was fine, but he's never seen a head so warped.
All because I didnt put $2 of mesh in front of the radiator...

, so I turned around and grabbed the Miata.It's nice to have a Spare track car that was just at the track and ready to go.
So I have a Misfire in Cylinder 7, could be a spark plug, plug wire, coil pack or a broken valve spring (
). the latter has been a issue with some higher mileage LS6 engines.Great track event though, we had the track to ourselves, just parked in the hot pit,
