A moment of Silence please....
QtrWarrior June 29th 2013, 4:44 pm
My dirt track partner called last weekend and said....."ummmm, I think it's hurt"...
Final totals...23 races, 9 wins, 1 Track class championship, and leading points again this year...
Looks like it broke a piston first.
Block can probably be saved, with a sleeve or 2..
Rotating assembly is toast..
Please see ad in "wanted section."
Rest in Peace good friend... you served us well...........

If you are going to hurt one, this is a good start.

If you need some lifters I have a set or two I can donate to the "Woop on the Chevy's" cause, let me know I'll bring some down with me.

Not a clue.. Might have to disassemble one of the good ones to find out...
These are Crower solid lifters with an EDM hole in the lifter face...
