So anyway, would the engine have lasted a while? Maybe..... but I wasn't taking any chances of grenading the motor on the road course etc. Now I need to find a reputable engine shop that can blueprint, re balance the crank, hot tank the block, etc. Any recomendations will be appreciated.
Now for the fun part, more compression and a mechanical cam. I'll put it together and make sure it's done right. It will be better. Here is where I stand.
