Melted a piston last spring racing a full zoot vagon.

That sucks man sorry to hear that.

did you make any upgrades with the rebuild or ?

are you going to the rental in Indiana ? I’m close to putting my money down I think I can make it. Bout to get my rear race brakes and have new billet specialties win lites 15 inch for the rear waiting to go on the rear to match my fronts. I’d like to get a 10.5 pass. Do you know or anyone know if it’s a fast track etc? I’m still shocked at how fast everyone ran at Cecil and I lost quite a few spots because of it. Even in similar DA that track is an honest .1-2 quicker than most from what I can gather. Has me annoyed lol. Nobody but snowblind ran any faster than me before they went to Cecil without any changes. And even snow runs at atco anyways. Kinda sucks unfair advantage lol oh well

That stock motor had a pretty rough life, it didn't owe me much. Stock cubes, rods and pistons, more compression, ported heads and NSR cams. It's a partial build.
I'm doing my best to get to the rental with one of my cars. Lots of **** to do still.

The track is decently fast, quicker than my home track.

are you going to take that crate engine to its actual limits? cubic inches, etc? if i had one of those engines in hand, i wouldn't be replacing the coyote with a mystery motor, i'd be using that gt500 engine as a starting point. think big man. talk to kaase.

It's a streetcar with a 5.4L iron block 4V truck motor. No mystery about it.

It's ready to go into my shelby as soon as cobro gets off the lift.
