Time to leave the boost @24psi! The motor has about 30-35 passes on it and most of them were 9 second runs. My hats off to Jack, Brian and Bobby. I was pushing the envelope with 30 psi. This is the first time I have even had to really touch anything with it since I got it back from Jack. (besides changing the oil and spark plugs) Pretty sure the last time I went to E-town is when the gasket started to go. That 9.44 @143 was the begining of the end. Heck, it still ran a 9.66 @ 30 psi and a 9.86 @ 24 psi before she went totally on Saturday! Before.... ![]() A couple hours later Monday night..... ![]() I found the problem!! ![]()

We can't wait for Cecil. I got the transfer switch ordered for the motorhome generator so we won't have to use that insanely noisy one! It did keep everyone else away though.... ![]() Were you guys going to be able to make it to Cecil?

I dunno Mike...I'd definitely like to go, but it's quite a ride from 16 miles west of Montreal all the way to Maryland, just to watch and not participating!
![]() Good luck at Cecil County!... Claude. ![]() P.S: What DATE is it going to be?... ![]()

Not to many have gone as fast as you with out finding a weak link. 4 head bolts per cylinder does suck doesn't it.
Best of luck to you guys getting it fixed up in time for your next event.
