So I had a conversation with my engine builder.... and he was real clear about it --- you can bring it in for a total refresh every 40 hours by taking it to redline every shift... or you can short shift it a bit and I'll see ya in a few years. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm.


Like Charley told me from day one.... we're just out here having fun -- not much point in just abusing the stuff.
