i found a snap on socket in my engine

[speedshftr]

no joke at all
my engine ran great no ticks knocks leaks ect.pulled it out for the resto.
i pulled the intake off and found a full size snap on socket rolling around the valley/lol i almost fell over.the ratchet was apart at this point.everything was there except for the 2 screws/

the ratchet had initials on it/it was an older jasper engine from years ago.
the best part about the deal was the snap on guy rebuilt the socket and its like new for free/lol

anyone ever heard of this crap

I found a plastic applicator tip from a tube of RTV when I pulled the intake off my engine last fall.

i have done all my own enginework in the past untill a diesel (2.4 toyota i rebuilt) blew up on me and i started wondering of i shouldnt have a pro do the 427 for my impala.... so i did and when i pulled the distributor to prime the engine prior to startup (i had installed EVERYTHING at this point) the distributor drive rod was not installed.... the oilpump was there... but the drive was absent....

im back to doing my own enginework again!

found a T-handle allen and a rag in the valley of an ARCA motor, had a guy stuff a rag in the intake on the dyno to keep things from going in the engine while at lunch, well after lunch they he forgot and put the carb on, the rag was sucked in and cracked the block as the piston tryed to compress the rag.
