Cool Thanks to Ryne at CMS

Known Ryne for a while and he's a real good guy. The other day I bent the hell outa about 3 pushrods, the pic below shows the worst of em... called Ryne up and besides giving me some pointers on changing them he told me to come down to the shop and hooked me up with a free set of stock replacements from an '04 Z06 motor he had sitting around... By the end of the day I had the new set installed and car seems to be running ok now, even though i'm babying the hell out of it scared to get it over 2k rpm's

Hopefully its a no biggie, I bent and snapped stock pushrods on seperate occasions. After going with stronger valvesprings and hardened pushrods I never had an issue again (revving to 7400 rpm)

we ran the hell out of the car and the engine shut off... I figure a mis-shift, over-rev or something similar... going from 3rd to 4th gear drivin it pretty hard....
